About us
Inside Job, is an Employment Consultancy with a difference. It was co-created by a serving prisoner, who is very much part of Our Team, and the Charity, Beating Time. Recognising the huge barriers people who have served a sentence face to re-entering the workplace, we realised a specialized service was needed. A service which collapses the space between Employers, who want to use their recruitment policies to achieve social impact, and people who are in prison. A service which understands those challenges and works collaboratively to remove them. Employment reduces reoffending by 50% - this is a job worth doing.
Inside Job is unique in 2 ways:
1. We recruit and train serving prisoners as Recruitment Consultants who provide us with our candidate pipeline and work closely alongside us.
2. We take employers into prison to interview Candidates. Job offers are made there and then.
We are an award-winning organisation (Winner of the Robin Corbett award 2020 for prison reintegration & 2 High Sheriff awards) and are powered by individuals who are fuelled by purpose and passionate about what we do.
