Learning to Work (South East) Ltd

Who we are

Learning to Work is a Slough-based youth development charity that facilitates the link between education and the world of work. Our work is all about bringing opportunity to young people and equipping them with the skills they will need to reach their full potential. We are extremely passionate about what we do and the impact we have on the lives of young people. 

Each year we work with over 19,000 young people on a variety of different activities including Careers Guidance, Work Ready Activities, Business Insight Days, Careers & Apprenticeship Events, Enterprise Activities, Inter-school Competitions and STEAM activities, as well as support for those with Specials Needs and students struggling with mainstream education. 

Business engagement is at the heart of everything we do and is what sets our activities apart when it comes to giving young people an insight into the world of work and what employers will expect of them when they enter the workplace. Our brilliant business volunteers bring all of our activities to life with their expertise and enthusiasm. Whether we are taking young people out into the world of work, or bringing our volunteers in schools and colleges, we support, inspire and motivate young people to be successful in the workplace.

In 2021, we were thrilled to receive the Queen's Award for Voluntary Service. It is the MBE for volunteer groups and is awarded for life, and it is a true testament to the dedication of our business volunteers who give up their time to make a difference to the futures of local young people. We cannot think of a better way to celebrate the achievements of our amazing volunteers and thank them for their hard work and commitment to Learning to Work. 

We currently have an opportunity for the right person to join our team, adopt our values and progress their career with us.
