Harnessing the power of the people profession
At the CIPD Trust, we’re on a mission to support those facing the biggest barriers to work. By harnessing the knowledge and expertise of people professionals, we connect talent with opportunity – helping individuals get into and thrive in fair, inclusive workplaces.
We support:
- People with convictions
- Refugees rebuilding their careers
- Parents and carers returning to work
- Older workers re-entering the job market.
We change lives by opening doors to meaningful employment and we empower people professionals to shape more inclusive workplaces. Together, we’re building a fairer and more diverse world of work.
Join us and be part of the change.
“I genuinely couldn't be more thrilled. I have a job I love in a sector I would never have looked at. I'm so much happier. This has changed my life.”
– Kirsty, parent returner
