Marks & Start Programme

Marks & Start offers pre-employment training and a two-week work probation placement with Marks and Spencer. The programme gives a confidence boost, a sense of direction and a new awareness of the help that is on offer – and, of course, a reference from one of the most respected high street names. Participants will learn what they have to offer employers and how to present themselves positively in applications and interviews. The probationary placement with M&S proves to participants and future employers that they can combine being a parent with paid work. The programme gives participants experience of the retail sector and a set of marketable skills. It equips them for roles not only in M&S, but also in the wider marketplace. Aftercare support services are available on completion of the programme to help achieve personal goals. Travel and meal costs are met.
