The Brokerage

Who we are

The Brokerage is an award-winning social mobility charity.

For 27 years, we have supported over 87k less-advantaged young people to fulfil their potential through improved awareness and access to professional career opportunities. Together with our talented young people and top UK companies, we are breaking down barriers to a more diverse and talented workforce. Our mission is twofold - to empower working-class and ethnically diverse young people (16-25) to recognise their strengths, gain skills, and access opportunities to reach their career potential. We are also building a dynamic alliance with forward-thinking employers to support them in accessing and retaining this talent. Together, we develop an inclusive and equitable workforce that authentically mirrors our society's rich diversity. 

Our culture and values

Our Vision: A world where a young person’s ability and aspiration determine their career path.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

We believe that everyone should be treated with respect and dignity. We live and breathe our EDI values as we work with young people and employers to improve their internal practices and create systemic change.
