ABOUT THE ROLE
Support Learners into Work
Deliver Career Readiness
Support Employer Relationships
Generation is a charity in Ireland with the mission to support people facing significant and multiple barriers to employment into life-changing careers they otherwise could not access.
We achieve this with a unique methodology of profession-specific skills bootcamp training, focussed on in-demand careers (specifically in the tech, healthcare and green sectors), with extensive, ongoing pastoral support and matchmaking to employer partners.
The charity is part of a network of Generation charities launched globally in 2015, and has grown quickly to become the world’s largest demand-led employment initiative. We have placed >100,000 people into roles, working with over 4,000 employer partners to date across 16 countries and 26 professions.
Since launching in Ireland in 2020, we have trained more than 600 people. Our work focuses on supporting those from diverse groups facing barriers to desirable employment. For these learners, we have achieved an industry leading c. 70% job placement rate with learners now placed at >200 employers.
On this journey, we have implemented an education-employment initiative completely new to the Irish skilling ecosystem with sector-leading results.
We have secured transformative corporate philanthropic funding from Microsoft, Verizon, JPMorganChase Charitable Foundation, Indeed, LinkedIn, Bank of America, Accenture, and more. We have also built strong public sector partnerships, working with ETBS, Skillnets and SOLAS..
Day to day Generation Ireland works closely with its sister charity in the UK as a team of c.80 people. By joining, you will become part of an organisation committed to social impact, changing the education and skills landscape, and changing people’s lives.. The work is fast-paced, exciting, and innovative.
