Calling all London businesses! Want to make a difference, open doors to young people and help shape the next generation of talent? Our latest initiative allows you to do just that. Wiseup is thrilled to announce that the London Careers Challenge is now live – an exciting new opportunity for businesses to engage with and inspire the next generation of talent through a range of career engagement activities.

Wiseup is proud to share that last week, seven Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) students attended Inverto’s London office for a curated taster of life in consulting, building on the mentoring they have undertaken throughout the Pathfinder Programme.

Another Intern work experience week has successfully wrapped for London Intern 26, marking the fourth consecutive year of delivering impactful, real-world experiences for young people.

WSD recently welcomed 9 students from Harris Academy Bermondsey for an engaging two-day work experience programme as part of its Pathfinder initiative, offering a valuable insight into the world of work within a global SaaS business. This milestone marks the second year running for WSD and Wiseup’s partnership on the Pathfinder Programme, an initiative designed to give young people invaluable insights into the world of work. Read on to discover exactly how the team at WSD made this such a special week for the students at Harris Academy Bermondsey.

Earlier in June, With Intelligence welcomed sixteen Queen Mary students to their offices for an interactive in-office visit designed to energise, inspire and inform the university students at a pivotal time in their lives. Studying a range of subjects, the group shared a strong interest in pursuing careers in the digital sector post-university. The visit provided a valuable opportunity to bridge the gap between academic learning and the realities of the workplace, giving students first-hand insight into the variety of roles and pathways available within the industry.

Last week marked a major milestone for the team at NES Fircroft and their students from Trafford and Stockport College Group, as they completed a fantastic work experience week. Thanks to the input, time and energy from the volunteers at NES Fircroft, the students experienced a vibrant and engaging work experience week at their Manchester offices.
