As the festive season draws near, we’re reminded of all we have to be thankful for, but also of those who may be facing greater challenges. At Workpays, supporting individuals through tough times has always been at the heart of what we do.


We know this period is particularly challenging for many, with unemployment on the rise and the cost of living affecting households across the UK. That’s why our programmes from Restart to skills bootcamps remain vital, helping people gain the skills, confidence, and opportunities they need to thrive.


We’re also excited to see our partnership with Orangebox Training Solutions already off to a flying start. Working together, we’re creating new opportunities for learners and businesses alike, helping more people and teams succeed.


This Christmas, we’re grateful for the chance to make a difference and for the trust of the people, employers, and communities we support.


— Alex Glasner, Managing Director at Workpays

CONTRACT SPOTLIGHT


Apprenticeships – Developing Talent for the Future 🤝


Our Apprenticeship programmes, fully funded, connects employers across the UK with motivated individuals looking to start or progress in their careers.


We work with employers to create apprenticeship opportunities across multiple sectors, ensuring roles pay at least the National Minimum or Living Wage. Apprentices gain practical, hands-on experience while building essential skills in areas such as finance, leadership, customer service, and employability. This ensures employers have a pipeline of confident, job-ready talent, and learners receive the guidance, mentoring, and support they need to succeed.


Whether you’re an employer wanting to develop your workforce or an individual seeking a structured career pathway, our apprenticeship programmes provide tailored training, nationally recognised qualifications, and access to career progression opportunities.
