When you hire through Ruby Magpie, 5% of our recruitment fee goes directly to Fledgling Work. Straight from our fee to Fledgling Work. Simple as that.
We started Ruby Magpie because we believed recruitment could be done better. Fifteen years later, we still do. But better recruitment is not enough on its own.
The reality is that access to opportunity is still unequal. Young people are locked out of their first job because they cannot get experience without experience. Talented people are overlooked because of where they came from or who they know.
Fledgling Work exists to change that. And the Fledgling Fund is how Ruby Magpie plays its part.
We do what we do best. Find you the right person for the right role.
5% of every recruitment fee we earn goes to Fledgling Work. Every placement, without exception.
To fund real programmes, real mentors and real opportunities for early career talent who need them most.
The Fledgling Fund supports Fledgling Work in building opportunities that would not otherwise exist.
That includes a mentorship programme connecting young people with experienced professionals who can open doors, share knowledge and help them find their footing. Paid placements and project work assessed on ability, not background. And the webinars, coaching and practical support that help early career talent show up ready.
A good mentor can change the trajectory of someone's career. We know that from experience.
