Quote from the Sponsor :

As businesses in Kent continue to fight their way through these times of continued economic uncertainty where margins are constantly squeezed, it is clear that the businesses that succeed are those that have a fully engaged and highly motivated workforce. All employers - large and small - talk about the importance of their people, but this is a chance to prove that you really are one of Kent's employers of choice.
