o Increase the number of young people on the programme year on year

The placements for the twenty four young people will be in Digital Services, who are responsible for co-ordinating the delivery and collection of BCCs mail, Customer Services Division, which provides a range of professional services to enable citizens of Birmingham to engage with the city council and employs approximately 450 members of staff across a number of areas, and Business Improvement and Support, who lead, shape and deliver high quality administrative services which make a positive difference every day to customers, businesses and visitors to Birmingham.
