“There are many experienced women professionals who leave the workforce for personal reasons and may find it a daunting task to restart their careers. ‘Take Two’ programme offers an unique opportunity for women professionals to restart after extended breaks, thus creating supported routes back to work for returners,” HSBC Global Service Centre Global Head of Operations Subir Mehra said.
During the programme, each of the 25-30 participants will be provided with a mentor, who will be an experienced Global Supply Chain (GSC) project manager.
They will also get to participate in various learning and training modules, which will focus on leadership, technical knowledge and confidence building, Mehra said.
