Enterprise Advisers
Our Enterprise Advisers are a pivotal part of the Gloucestershire Careers Hub – these volunteers connect local business and education, making a lasting impact on the futures of young people.
We’re delighted to have a committed team of Enterprise Advisers (EAs), who come from a wide range of industries and backgrounds. Each Enterprise Adviser works strategically with a different school or college, supporting them to deliver high-quality careers education and guidance.
Want to become an Enterprise Adviser? Head to our Get Involved page and a member of the team will be in touch with more information.
The role of the Enterprise Adviser is to:
- Support a school or college for at least one academic year. The majority of our EAs continue their role after the first year.
- Volunteer sufficient time with their school or college to achieve positive change. A good guide is at least one meeting per half term (ie every 2 months). This can be face to face or virtual, along with any travel, prep work or follow up.
- With the support of the school/college’s Senior Leadership Team, develop, shape or add value to the school/college’s strategic careers plan and progressive careers programme.
- Work with the assigned Gloucestershire Careers Hub Enterprise Coordinator and school/college Careers Leader to conduct a self-evaluation of the school or college’s progress through the free Compass+/Compass Classic tool and support the school or college in identifying priority areas for support.
- Join the Gloucestershire Careers Hub Enterprise Adviser Network group and attend the network meetings.
Find out more about the role of Enterprise Advisers on the EA Portal.
