Partner with us
Find out about our partner programmes with Salesforce, Pfizer and JPMorganChase.
We work with employers, funders, and representative organisations across different industries and sectors who want to engage with education, or are investing in the education system to help close skills and disadvantage gaps.
Where sectors are looking to increase their reach into education, we utilise our network of Careers Hubs to maximise effectiveness of engagement and target outreach, supporting programmes such as Build UK and Discover Creative Careers.
Using insights and data from our Employer Standards we support organisations to understand and connect with the parts of the education system that will have the biggest impact on connecting young people with opportunities and addressing priority skills gaps.
Below are three examples of innovative partner programmes, designed to accelerate measurable impact for young people and employers.
- Generation Logistics Careers Beacon
- JPMorgan Chase
- Salesforce

Generation Logistics partnered with CEC to fund a Logistics Careers Beacon, with the aim to transform perceptions of the logistics sector and inspire the next generation of talent. Through a pioneering pilot in Leicester and Leicestershire, the partnership delivered over 500 workplace experiences and engaged 16 major employers, including ASDA, Maersk, DHL, and Wincanton.
The initiative dramatically increased awareness of logistics careers among young people, with 97% of students reporting they now understand the sector and 63% expressing interest in pursuing logistics roles. By connecting schools with industry, Generation Logistics is helping to build a diverse talent pipeline for one of the UK’s fastest-growing sectors.
With philanthropic support from JPMorganChase, we delivered a £2m grant programme called Effective Transitions. Young people from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds face a range of barriers to progressing to high quality post-16 destinations which impacts on the trajectory of their whole lives. The programme delivered targeted support and built evidence on effective careers education for disadvantaged young people. The final evaluation will be completed and published summer 2024.
JPMorgan Chase have committed an additional £2.5m to building on lessons learned from the pilot programme and scaling this to keep helping young people to achieve better post-16 destinations.
In June 2025, JPMorganChase announced a further £3.3 million investment, in parternship with the CEC, to expand high-quality work experience opportunities for socio-economically disadvantaged young people.
With support from Salesforce, The Digital Futures Accelerator (DFA) Fund seeks to promote the adoption of Apprenticeship and Technical Education (ATE) pathways leading to digital skills and employment opportunities.
Commencing in September 2024, the two-year, £1 million-backed programme will be managed through our network of Careers Hubs. The programme’s principal aim is to eliminate some of the barriers to young people's advancement, particularly those facing socioeconomic challenges.
This initiative also encourages the development of innovative, location-specific programmes informed by data from our ATE Framework.
