Another successful work placement comes to an end! Jonathan has completed 2 wks with us at Brightstar, providing valuable support to various functions across the business. Our Young Learners Programme is ably led by the brilliant Amanda, assisted by the equally brilliant Billie!

Well done to Finn for completing his work experience placement with us. I received a beautifully written letter from him, describing what he has learnt & achieved in his week with us, plus his aspirations for the future. Here’s Amanda-Jayne Burns with Finn. She leads our fab programme

Another Young Learner….

Huge congratulations to Billie who began her career journey with us on a summer work experience placement. Billie is firm evidence of the success of our ‘growing our own’ strategy and she also plays a pivotal role in our Young Learners Programme. Well done Billie!

Our Young Learners team are really looking forward to the forthcoming Careers Convention Brentwood School where we will be delighted to inspire young people about the world of financial services. We will be on hand to answer questions, offer support & provide work placements

Supporting young people in the business to be the best versions of themselves….

Absolutely fantastic to see two of our previous Young Learners (who completed work experience placements) in this super line-up. Who will be our first work experience student to make the journey to Consultant/Broker? Now that would be a story!!!!

Another fabulous Young Learner! We’ve hosted 12 young people during this year for work placements and we’re proud to say that since the inception of our Young Learners Programme, we have appointed 7 new full time team members, soon to be 8. We believe in #growingourown

Fantastic! We are so proud of our ‘growingourown’ culture and the investment that we make in young people. Our entire business is full of examples of the success of this approach. Another brilliant day for Brightstar and two obvious stars for the future… ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️
