Host a Working in the City Insight Session with The Brokerage

What if two hours could change a young person’s future - and transform how your organisation connects with emerging talent?
Working in the City is a fully facilitated insight experience that brings motivated young people aged 16 - 25 from lower socioeconomic backgrounds directly into your workplace. Designed to be a simple way for employers to engage and a powerful opportunity for students, these sessions create meaningful, face-to-face connections between professionals and the next generation of under-resourced City talent who don’t have family connections to hear from career professionals.
An introductory offer designed to give new partner companies a taste of our work.
Community engagement made simple
We handle everything - from recruiting and preparing students to facilitating the entire session on the day.
All we ask you to do is:
Choose a date
Provide a meeting space within your office
Invite a small group of colleagues to volunteer
No preparation is required for volunteers, making this one of the most accessible and high-impact ways to support social mobility while strengthening your future talent pipeline.
Flexible, impactful, and designed around you
Sessions can be delivered in:
A focused 2-hour experience – ideal for end-of-day engagement
A half-day deep dive – including networking, case study presentation, and skills development
Each format gives students the chance to:
Meet professionals and hear real career journeys
Build confidence through networking and teamwork
Gain insight into assessment-style tasks and workplace expectations
For employers, it’s a powerful opportunity to:
Showcase your organisation and culture
Engage colleagues in meaningful volunteering
Build authentic connections with diverse early-career talent
Demonstrate visible commitment to social mobility and inclusion
Fully supported. Zero hassle. Real impact.

Brokerage candidates choose to attend in their own time, arrive prepared to engage, and are supported throughout by our experienced team.
Many sessions are fully funded by our generous donors, meaning you can host at no cost (refreshments optional).
