Manchester Digital and festival headline sponsor AtkinsRéalis have announced details of #HackaFuture at Digital Skills Festival 2025, an industry-first recruitment campaign with a difference.
If you’re a student, early in your career, a seasoned coder, or interested in digital solutions, this is your chance to shape the future of tech and tackle some of the world’s most pressing challenges alongside like-minded innovators.
The event will fuse a dynamic and exciting hackathon with recruiting the next generation of changemakers. And the best part is that the winning team of five will be offered full-time jobs with AtkinsRéalis including a competitive salary and benefits package, plus a £3,000 joining bonus.
Over an exciting weekend in a central Manchester hotel, applicants will collaborate with their team (we’ll help you build one if necessary) to develop a digital solution to a challenge based on real issues facing our planet and its people. Attendees will have access to cutting-edge technologies and experts in the field.
#HackaFuture will take place on Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th February and will involve:
- Two exciting days of collaboration and creativity
- Teams will rapidly prototype digital solutions for real-world challenges in the energy and sustainability sectors
- The winning team will receive job offers from AtkinsRéalis for all five members!
Applications are now open, and will close 30th November 2024. Shortlisted candidates will be notified by 20th December 2024.
