Working with government, MPs, civil servants and wider industry, we aim to make sure that every young person is given the opportunity to develop money management skills, employability skills and an understanding of the broad range of careers available to them.
Last year we worked with 482,000+ young people, helping them to develop key employability and financial capability skills. Currently we work with 46% of secondary schools in the UK, including 57% of those in the 30% most deprived areas.
Our programmes have a tangible impact on the jobs market: within two years, 95% of Company Programme alumni are in Education, Employment or training, 7% higher than the national average.

– Theresa May, Former Prime Minister (2019)
