STHREE FOUNDATION - SUPPORTING FUTURE TALENT IN STEM

09/11/2016
SThree Foundation - Supporting future talent in STEM

SThree and our ten specialist brands play an integral part in supporting the talent pipeline for our clients who operate in life changing industries. This is why we've launched the SThree Foundation which supports bright young people from underprivileged and diverse backgrounds in the fields of science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM).

As a global specialist staffing business we’re aware of the skills shortage in STEM industries and well placed to facilitate involvement across these sectors.

We believe that we all have a responsibility to ensure that we make career opportunities available to diverse talent for innovation and sustainable growth, as well as help to change young lives towards positive destinations.

More about the SThree Foundation

Through our Future Talent programme, set up in collaboration with charity partner Generating Genius, we're engaging school students who have an interest in STEM and strong academics to help them to successfully transition into STEM higher education, jobs and apprenticeships.

Of all the students we support, 60% will be female to address the current gender imbalance going into these sectors.

What are we doing?

Initially, we’re working with London-based charity Generating Genius to support 50 A-Level students, 16 to 18 years old, over two years as they complete high school. These students are from diverse ethnic backgrounds and live in disadvantaged areas.

We will be offering them SThree workshops to understand emerging trends and opportunities in STEM. We will also be working with our partners to provide week-long insight placements during the 2017 school holidays.

Taking action to address the future skills gap

We actively encourage every organisation who is committed to making a difference by addressing the future skills gap to get in touch with us.

By taking part in the Future Talent programme, you're actively taking action to address the future talent pipeline.Your business will have access to academically-gifted, reliable students who have won the coveted places on the programme. You will also receive free support in structuring and coordinating placements.

There is no cost for getting involved.

If you are interested in learning more about the programme, please get in touch with our Head of CSR Marie Broad or visit our corporate website.
