We are delighted to announce that our School Outreach Programme, delivered in partnership with The School Outreach Company has won the ‘Innovation in Recruitment’ award at the Personnel Today Awards! 🏆
Together, we’ve reimagined how we engage with primary schools, secondary schools and colleges across Britain to ignite interest, change the perception of the housebuilding industry, and promote the vast range of career opportunities we offer for young people.
Working with a wider network of over 200 employee champions, the programme aims to address the industry’s talent gap by providing students with hands-on experience, mentorship, and clear pathways to long-term careers. We do this through engaging with over 1,750 schools, delivering workshops, assemblies, newsletters and webinars, to interact with young people.
To date, 400,000 Year 12 & 13 students have been reached, with over 1 million students engaged across all targeted schools and colleges.
This award recognition is a testament to the dedication of our divisional champions and our collaboration with The School Outreach Company. Thank you to all of our people who continue to champion careers in housebuilding and engage with the next generation of talent.
