At Shaw Trust, we believe in the power of collaboration and partnership. We’ve been doing incredible work with major employers helping them to become more inclusive and getting people back into work. Our work with Kindred, a cleaning services provider based in Hertfordshire, is a great example of what can be achieved in partnership.
Kindred highlighted the role our National Account Team plays in their recruitment process and the value we bring as a partner organisation.
Lucy Waller, their Marketing & Change Director, said: “Shaw Trust have been successfully helping Kindred with the recruitment of our cleaning operatives for the last two years providing strategic employer engagement via a dedicated National Account Manager. Without doubt, they are laser focussed on helping people facing disadvantage back to work. We have an open and honest dialogue and value the support they provide as we together navigate and overcome any barriers we may face to helping people back into work.”
Shaw Trust National Account Manager, Martin Collard, said: “Through a collaborative working partnership we have opened up Kindred roles to a wide talent pool across all of our contracts and worked closely with them to implement a referral and feedback process that has seen over 30 people get back into work!”
The Power of Partnership
At Shaw Trust, our mission is to help people gain skills, find employment, and take control of their futures. Partnering with businesses like Kindred allows us to extend our impact. We provide tailored employer services that help create work environments that are supportive and inclusive.
Our National Account Team engage with employers to ensure that the people we support are matched with opportunities that allow them to thrive. The success of our partnership with Kindred is a testament to what can be achieved when organisations come together with a shared commitment to help people into good work.
Looking Ahead
As we celebrate this partnership, we look forward to continuing our work with Kindred and other like-minded organisations.
