On Friday 13th June, we were thrilled to see the Pathfinder Programme come to life in its very first in-person mentoring session, hosted at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL). Developed in collaboration with Inverto, a BCG company, this programme is designed to support students from underrepresented backgrounds as they navigate their journey from education into the world of work — and Friday marked an important milestone in that mission. The energy in the room on Friday was palpable, and the mentors were impressed by the curiosity, drive, and thoughtfulness of the students they met.

Add People celebrate a successful work experience week This June, Wiseup Networks teamed up with Add People to deliver a powerful week of career insight and skill-building for five students from Wellington School as part of our Pathfinder Programme. Based in Altrincham, Add People is a thriving digital marketing agency supporting thousands of small businesses across the UK and beyond. The work experience week gave students a rare opportunity to go behind the scenes of a fast-moving digital company — meeting experts, exploring different roles, and building their confidence along the way.

After months of preparation and anticipation, we’re proud to share that the London Intern 25 work experience week has officially concluded – and what an incredible week it’s been!

Wiseup is proud to celebrate the latest successful completion of another Pathfinder Programme work experience placement at LondonEnergy.
