Apprenticeships
SROI: £9,064,440
We have continued to build on our existing
programme to ensure all appropriate
vacancies and job roles are considered as an
apprenticeship.
Circa 900
apprentices currently
onboard in UK&I,
representing 5.5%
of eligible
headcount
Our focus is, however, not just on volume but on contributing the
greatest possible value in social mobility terms. This involves developing
ongoing strategies to reach into the most marginalised of groups and
communities to offer the opportunities where they are most needed.
The partnership we commenced this year with Youth Employment UK
is one such step forward we have taken to achieve this goal.
Laura-Jane Rawlings, CEO of Youth Employment UK, said:
“Youth Employment is delighted to add Sodexo to our YouthFriendly Community. We look forward to working together to
connect more young people to good quality opportunities to
explore work. If we are to stamp out youth unemployment and
close the skills gap, we must support young people in embracing
opportunities for work experience and encourage employers to
offer such possibilities.”
