Supporting people from lower socioeconomic and underresourced backgrounds to thrive in their lives is a commitment all of us should have. If you and your organisation want to increase the impact made through your Social Mobility and Social Value efforts then look no further.
We specialise i creating opportunities that actually increase the upward mobility of people from less privileged communities. From Careers and Insight Days, to Work Experience programmes, Youth Fellowships and more… we are your transformation partner for Social Mobility and Social Value.
INSIGHTS, PATHWAYS AND EXPERIENCE
Introducing people to your organisation, allowing people to experience working with you or helping people progress within your organisation all require one thing… INTENTION!
​
Forget the normal approach of running a panel, a few presentations and a tour at an ‘Insight Day’
​
Forget the standard work experience programme that simply has candidates carry out tasks and responsibilities across a team or department and “hoping they enjoy”.
​
Our programmes use gamified approaches to take participants on a focused, guided journey ensuring they fully understand business functions, debunk business myths and understand what it takes to become an effective professional or leader.
CAREERS AND INSIGHT DAYS
Our stance when partnering is always to be proactive and progressive in order to help our partners and clients gain a wide range of value from us whilst staying affordable. That is why we will design a comprehensive plan of activity that achieves your ideal objectives.
OUR UNIQUE APPROACH TO INSIGHTS AND CAREERS DAYS
INDIVIDUAL
Raising young people’s awareness of the career pathways available in a company like yours and encouraging self-assessment of their own skills and experience so they are equipped to apply for roles that may become available in your organisation, sector or industry.
OPPORTUNITY
Strategically giving colleagues from your organisation an insight into the talent available in communities they may tend not to engage with and why their current approaches and processes may create barriers to participation for this talent.
SYSTEM
Through follow-up mentoring partnerships that take place after the day, we are able to capture anecdotal evidence of the impact that can be made through a change in your talent acquisition operation if you seek to sustain engagement with people from these communities.
What you can expect from us when partnering for an Insight or Careers Day
Designing and leading the day
​
Pulling together a great itinerary is one thing, but ensuring the day flows in a way where each activity or contributor is creating the experience and impact on attendees that we desire is another. We guarantee to design and lead the day in a way that creates a great impression of your organisation and brings the best out of colleagues that are contributing to the day.
Marketing and Communications
​
We know what young people need to read, watch or listen to if they are going to overcome the fear and anxiety that comes with choosing to attend an event where they could be pushed far out of their comfort zone. From flyers, to social media campaigns, to newsletter and email copy that can be distributed through a range of partner communications channels, we are here to ensure these different marketing activities produce the engagement results you desire.
​
Supporting your colleagues
​
People may not always voice their concerns, but we know that colleagues who are asked to be on panels, give presentations, run workshops or be part of networking activities at Careers and Insight Days can sometimes find these responsibilities challenging. Through coaching, guidance and preparatory support, we ensure colleagues from your organisation feel comfortable and confident to put their best foot forward so they represent themselves and the organisation in the best way possible.
​
Impact Evaluation
Given that resource is being invested to run the Careers or Insight Day, we believe that measuring and evaluating the impact made on the people attending is critically important. Through surveys, interviews and longitudinal monitoring, we are able to develop reports that detail the impact made by these events.
