Meet Our Student Ambassadors
The Pathfinder programmes open doors. Discover how these students started as mentees and are now inspiring others as Wiseup Ambassadors.
Our ambassadors are students who’ve completed our programmes and want to keep the momentum going. They champion Wiseup by sharing their experiences, inspiring others, and helping ensure the impact of our Pathfinder Programmes continues long after they finish.
Our Student Ambassadors are more than just alumni - they’re champions of social mobility. Having taken part in our initiatives themselves, they're in the invaluable position to give feedback to help us improve our programmes, inspire others with their journey, and helping us build a stronger, more connected community.
“Hi, I'm Yusuf, a BSc Economics, Statistics & Mathematics student at Queen Mary University of London. My experience with Wiseup began with my participation in Inverto's Pathfinder Programme, in which they assisted in running.
As a first year undergraduate student, I gained early exposure to the world of consultancy through a BCG subsidiary, being matched with a mentor and having the opportunity to visit the office and speak with senior members of the firm. I found the mentoring aspect to be the most valuable part of the experience. I had multiple 1-to-1 sessions with a Project Manager, helping me with many questions I had, not only in the consultancy industry, but also on a more personal level by addressing how I can advance my career in the short and long term.
The experience I gained with Wiseup was one that I know I'll look back on in the future as a vital moment in my early career, where I figured out how I'll progress my career further and where I built many vital skills that are applicable in any workspace."
