YES Manchester engages with future talent at Manchester College Industry Week! π«
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. π§π½βπ
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. π₯
A huge thank you to @themcrcollege for hosting such a valuable event! Weβre proud to have been part of it and look forward to continuing to support and empower the next generation of professionals. π

This International Womenβs Day, weβd like to spotlight our incredible Employment Coordinator, Marika!
An integral part of the YES family, Marikaβs passion, dedication, and unwavering support for others make a real #impact on both colleagues and customers. π
Recently, Marika took charge of YES Manchesterβs SPF-funded IndividuAll, providing one-to-one support for people facing barriers to employment, and thanks to her amazing work, 80% of participants secured employment! ππ½
Simultaneously, she played a pivotal role in helping YES Manchester win the Engaged Employer Award with Global Banking School, supporting students in gaining valuable work placements to launch their careers. π
Marika – your dedication and impact inspire us everyday. Thank you for making a real difference! ππ½
