Imperial Tobacco Group: Driving Jobs in Spain

Imperial has pledged its support for skills and training projects for jobseekers in the Cantabria region of northern Spain.

The 'Conduce tu futuro' course, which means 'drive your future', is designed to help people find commercial driving jobs.

Those taking part get lessons to help them gain a commercial vehicle driving licence as well as support in finding work, including CV preparation and interview technique.

This is the fifth year that the Altadis Foundation has agreed to support the driving course in Santander - home to our Cantabria cigar factory.

In addition, the Madrid-based foundation is also helping to provide skills training for vulnerable adults at a social centre in the city.

She said: "In the current economic environment in Spain it's vital to provide more opportunities for people to find work. These are both pioneering projects which we're delighted to support." Enditem
