Become an Enterprise Adviser and inspire the next generation of our workforce

Becoming an Enterprise Adviser lets you:
• Support your local school or college to deliver world class careers guidance to their students, enabling young people to be prepared and inspired for the fast-changing world of work.
• Undertake strategic planning in a new context; developing your skills in communication and strategy development.
• Build strong working relationships with schools and colleges and provide insight into your organisation, industry and the opportunities available in the local labour market.
• Give back to your community.
• Better understand the education sector and the challenges faced.
• Develop your local business network

An Enterprise Adviser adds value by:

• Providing an employer's perspective on what businesses are likely to be willing to do and what opportunities businesses would value.
• Supporting the school or college's senior leadership team to develop a school or college strategic plan to ensure every young person receives meaningful employer encounters and workplace experiences - you are not expected to be an expert in the Careers landscape to do this!
• Engaging with local businesses and employers in your network to encourage their involvement in activities at the school or college.
• Helping schools and colleges to focus efforts on programmes and activities that are most effective in motivating young people, supporting independent choice and enabling positive outcomes for young people.
