IntoUniversity |

IntoUniversity has been working at the heart of communities since 2002 and now operates 44 learning centres in 27 UK towns and cities. We have ambitious plans to expand to 50 centres by 2027 and work with thousands more young people in need of our support.

Each local centre offers an innovative programme that supports young people aged seven and up to realise their ambitions, achieve their academic potential, develop vital skills and gain experience of the world of work.

In every location we bring about positive, measurable change. Our annual results show that with our help, thousands of young people achieve their chosen aspiration, including university, further and higher education, employment and work-based training.

As a charity with social mobility as its core objective, IntoUniversity is wholly committed to equality of opportunity. We work with children and young people from a diverse range of backgrounds, and we believe that our staff team should be similarly diverse and representative.

The more inclusive we are, the better our work will be, and we recognise that we have much more to do in this regard. We are committed to building a culture where students, staff and volunteers are valued for the unique people they are. We therefore encourage applications from candidates from as wide a range as possible of ethnic, cultural and social backgrounds. In particular, we actively and warmly welcome applications from Black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates, male candidates and candidates with a disability as they are currently under-represented within IntoUniversity.

If you believe that all young people deserve the chance to develop their talents regardless of their background and want to play a part in helping them succeed, then we would be delighted to hear from you.

At IntoUniversity we believe that our values should be a part of everything that we do. They shape our culture as an organisation.

We value and recognise the talent of every person.

Quality

We complete everything to the highest possible standard.

Compassion

We practise pastoral, long-term care.

We exist to tackle educational injustice and to support young people to achieve their goals. We want our staff team to be diverse and representative of the many communities we work with – we are striving to achieve this. We are committed to our own continuous learning as we embed diversity and inclusion in all that we do. We want IntoUniversity to be a place where staff, students, and families can thrive. We know that this will make us a better organization, a better place to work and a better place to learn.
