Sheffield is one of the eight largest regional cities in England and has experienced strong economic growth; the Hallam area has previously been ranked the highest area for overall wealth outside of London. This together with its 2 universities make Sheffield a key area for education and students, and an area full of business potential. We feel a Pitman Training centre would be perfectly suited here.
After having a few years of decline in the past (pre 2003), Sheffield is now continuing with a strong revival and in 2011 it was announced that Sheffield will become an enterprise zone, which is to help small businesses in the region to increase economic growth. It has also been noted in the UK cities monitor to be among the top 10 “best cities to locate a business today”. As well as this it has been ranked 3rd for best office location, which helps create a good economic environment for jobs and peoples aspirations to build a career in the area.
Together with its strong economic environment, Sheffield manages to attract a lot of people to the area especially from neighboring boroughs due to its resources for shopping and study. This is a perfect environment for a Pitman Training Centre as it enables plenty of potential in our key customer segments of, students and returning to work mums.
