Where We Work
How Are We Achieving National Development?
• Skills Workshops and on campus support via Rise university partnerships.
• Delivering Insight Days and Careers Academies in Birmingham, Bristol and Manchester to
promote regional opportunities and boost employability skills.
• Factoring in Associates’ sector and location preferences relative to our employer partners, to
offer more opportunities where they live and study.
• Leveraging staff and resources to have a greater local impact and exploring the expansion of
of昀椀ce locations.
Building on our success as a national social mobility organisation, we will continue to in昀氀uence
our existing partners and expand our network to provide local opportunities to Associates. This
will help us reach more eligible students relative to social mobility coldspots, our of昀椀ce locations
and graduate hotspots.
