"Doing something great!"


Laura Shuttleworth • March 14, 2022

A big welcome to four new members of staff who have joined the Ways into Work team over the past few weeks and who are going to be 'doing something great'. Here is an update on who the new members of the team are and what their role is:

Claire Reynolds


Senior Employment Coach for Route to Recruit

 

Route to Recruit is our supported internship programme that is an education programme where young people with special educational needs spend the majority of time in the workplace, learning ‘on the job’.  It is extremely successful at getting young people with barriers into paid work. Claire has recently joined as a Senior Employment Coach and will be involved in supporting our interns on their journey to employment. 


Diane Hutchinson


Employment Coach on the BBO project 


Diane recently joined our delivery team as a Ways into Work Employment Coach. She will be supporting some of our unemployed job seekers who have barriers to employment across Maidenhead, Windsor and Bracknell areas to find relevant and suitable vacancies and employers to overcome recruitment challenges. 

Helen Anderson


Employment Coach for the West Berkshire Project


Helen has also joined our ever growing delivery team as one of our Employment Coaches.  We are particularly delighted as Helen worked for us a few years ago so has lots of experience and it’s good to see her back with the team.  Her role will involve working closely with both local businesses and young people to find a working match for both the company and the job seeker in the West Berks area.  Referrals for this project come through the West Berks SEN team.

Laura Shuttleworth 


Marketing Co-ordinator 


Laura has joined our team as our marketing co-ordinator which is an exciting new job role to help expand our marketing efforts. Her role will involve a variety of marketing campaigns across our website, social media channels and in the local area.
