We’re proud of our In-work Support Programme!
With a massive 80% retention rate at six months, we ensure our customers find a meaningful, well-paid job and stay in it. 🙌🏽
We recently helped a disabled employee keep their job after they were unfairly dismissed following 15 years of service. 🫂
Through proactive engagement with the employer’s management and HR, we advocated for them during the appeals process – leading to the original decision being overturned and their employment reinstated. 🌟

YES Manchester engages with future talent at Manchester College Industry Week! 🏫
We had an amazing time participating in Manchester College Industry Week, an event designed to connect students with industry experts and showcase career pathways, job roles, and entry routes into various sectors. 🧑🏽🎓
The energy throughout the event was fantastic, with plenty of interaction between students, employers, and our team. We had the privilege of speaking to over 50 students, discussing their career aspirations and sharing how YES can support them with employment opportunities, career guidance, and training. It was inspiring to see so many young people eager to learn and take steps toward their future careers. 👥
A huge thank you to @themcrcollege for hosting such a valuable event! We’re proud to have been part of it and look forward to continuing to support and empower the next generation of professionals. 🌟
