One of the wonderful employers I’ve been working with in Opportunity Sheffield - Sheffield City Council They have been very supportive of the sector routeways project and had some great outcomes 👏 Vill Powell Fiona Fletcher Mia Grant Charlotte M.
𝗘𝗻𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗼𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗵𝗲𝗳𝗳𝗶𝗲𝗹𝗱 The civils team in Sheffield have been busy in July with various social value projects, making positive change to the local community. Three highlights have been: ✅ Working with Opportunity Sheffield, Sisk’s team supported local people to overcome barriers to employment and enhance their career progression. All work experience placements passed their CSCS training, and are looking for paid work in the construction industry. We successfully placed two people in July…including Brad who features in the photos of this post…and have a further two lined up for August. ✅ Sisk part-sponsored the Better Learners, Better Workers graduation event in partnership with a local high school, King Edward VII, for one academic year. This programme offers a series of employer-led activities introducing young ambassadors to careers in civil engineering and construction. ✅ July also saw the final Future Endeavour coaching and mentoring session with All Saints High School. Sisk partnered with local employers and Endeavour Youth and Community, delivering fortnightly coaching and skills-building sessions using outdoor activities, workplace encounters and indoor creative workshops for one academic year. These are just some examples of the great social value work the team is undertaking each month around our two city centre sites in Sheffield - the Kelham Neepsend Active Travel scheme and the Fargate Future High Street Fund project. #WeAreSisk #SocialValue #Civils #Sheffield Dominic Hodges Lee Long CMgr MCMI Mike Widdicks Scott Cooper Amber Hendy Richard Gratton Emma Parker Sarah Ward Nichola Burkinshaw Katie Leather Opportunity Sheffield - Sheffield City Council Endeavour Youth and Community Better Learners Better Workers (BLBW) Sheffield City Council
