Employers

Create opportunities, support social mobility, and showcase your business to young people from low-income backgrounds.


How do we work with employers?

We design, deliver and evaluate a number of employability programmes. The programmes are varied, but are all structured to create local career awareness, provide employability skills training, paid work experience and one-to-one mentoring to our young people.

 

We will work with you to develop a bespoke programme, supporting your organisation to raise awareness of your sector and recruit young talent. We will offer training and support, enabling you to spend meaningful, structured time with young people from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

 

Please note all employers will be subject to an independence check, and UK audit clients of EY may be subject to some independence restrictions. We are also dedicated to safeguarding our young people and DBS checks and training will be required for all involved.
