PHX appoints two new department heads

By Tim Aldred

29 Oct 2020

PHX Training has appointed Becci Byers as head of work based learning and Julie Torrance as head of employment and training services.

The company is working with businesses and the community to help people find routes back into work or education, to promote apprenticeships and to help companies to apply for Kickstart funding or access workplace learning.

PHX Training managing director Briony Fawcett said: "The jobs market at the moment is moving extremely quickly, as some sectors struggle and others grow. That can be difficult for some people who find themselves needing to reskill, or for employers who need to retrain their workforce or recruit new staff.

"Our expert staff can help people of all ages reskill to find their next job, or help bosses to train and grow their workforce to become more skilled. Both Julie and Becci add a tremendous wealth of experience to that growing team."

PHX Training delivers government backed initiatives including adult skills, employability, apprenticeships and work based learning. It has centres across the region, including centres in Blackpool, Preston and Morecambe.
