What is a Portfolio Career?
Graduate Mentor are pleased to announce our next FREE online event designed to help student and graduate job seekers. This month’s speaker will be Ben Legg.
Half of all workers will have multiple income streams by 2030. This is known as a portfolio career. In this workshop you will learn how the world of work is changing, and how you can become more independent and generate multiple income streams as part of a successful portfolio career.
Ben Legg is CEO and co-founder of The Portfolio Collective, which helps professionals launch and sustain successful portfolio careers through offering training, community, collaboration and work opportunities. In addition to leading The Portfolio Collective, Ben also has his own portfolio career – mentoring startup & scaleup founders, helping investors pick winners and supporting Oxford University’s entrepreneurial initiatives.
Ben’s early career included British Army Officer, McKinsey strategy consultant, executive at Coca-Cola, COO of Google Europe and various global technology CEO roles. He has lived in nine countries and is the author of the award-winning book: Marketing For CEOs – Death Or Glory In The Digital Age.
