Glasgow City Council (GCC) leader Gordon Matheson has launched a new £10m initiative to create 1,000 jobs for graduates as part of a legacy from the 2014 Commonwealth Games.
The Commonwealth Graduate Fund (CGF) will pay 50 per cent of employers’ salary costs for each candidate recruited, up to a maximum of £10,000 per graduate for one year.
