Join a movement that’s changing lives—and transforming workplaces.
At Movement to Work, we believe that creating opportunities for young people furthest from the job market is one of the smartest things a business can do. It’s not just the right thing—it’s good for your bottom line too.
Why get involved?
A stronger, more inclusive workforce
Bringing young people into your organisation unlocks fresh ideas, energy, and perspectives. It’s a chance to build teams that better reflect the world we live in—and work better because of it.
A smarter way to grow talent
Youth programmes can become a powerful part of your long-term hiring strategy. You’ll discover new talent, build loyalty early, and develop skills that keep your business moving forward.
Purpose that drives performance
Doing good and doing well aren’t mutually exclusive. Creating opportunities for young people aligns with CSR and ESG ambitions—and inspires your people along the way.
Impact you can measure
Investing in youth employment delivers tangible returns. One study showed a 2.5x ROI through reduced turnover, better attendance, and stronger engagement.
“BAE Systems is committed to providing an inclusive working culture and we aim to attract talented people regardless of their background. We are proud to be a founding member of the Movement to Work programme, which has proved to be a great success in providing employment opportunities for young people across our business.”
— Charles Woodburn, CEO, BAE Systems
How we support you
Movement to Work is here to help you plan and deliver a programme that works for your business. Placements should benefit both your organisation and the young people involved – whether it’s through work experience or direct entry roles.
To help shape your thinking, we’ve created a simple planning form. It’s flexible, non-committal, and designed to guide your approach.
