British Airways is looking for talented people who are ambitious and committed to excelling in their field. Whether their interest lies in fashion, art and design, innovation, sport, community or performing arts, British Airways could help them.
In the spirit of the London 2012 Games, British Airways is launching GreatBritons, a scheme dedicated to supporting emerging British talent. This scheme will look for individuals who demonstrate the values associated with Olympic and Paralympic Games and who strive to be the best that they can be.
There are 180 flights available to any British Airways destination in the world, to give people the opportunity to follow their dream to the next level.
All they have to do is share a little about themselves and say how they would use this great opportunity to develop their talent. Final winners are decided by public votes, so it is a chance for them to get plenty of exposure too.
Whatever their passion is, it’s easy to take part in this once in a lifetime chance by clicking here to visit the Great Britons website.
