“It has been a pleasure and privilege to mentor Zubaid during his apprenticeship programme with Refinitiv. To be able to offer the opportunity for a career platform through the apprenticeship programme is not only inspirational for Zubaid but it allows him to serve by example and allow other young talents to shine.

“I have been impressed by Zubaid’s attitude and hard work and the positive stance at all times. It has been an absolute privilege that I wish the company would continue to support. Zubaid is in the process of being offered a permanent contract and that is testament to the programme and to Zubaid.

“Thank you to Yas for all his continued support throughout the programme.”
