About ELBA
ELBA builds the connection between businesses and the community in east London and beyond, creating a positive impact and strong communities and tackling the issues that determine social mobility. A registered charity and membership organisation, ELBA has over 30 years of experience in enabling successful partnerships between business and the community. In the past year, ELBA helped place over 300 people into work in London through its award-winning Employment Works programme, delivered over 12,000 business volunteers into the community, and worked with over 300 local organisations in east London. Our mission is to create possibilities to bring about positive change in London by channelling the wide-reaching resources and influence of the private sector to address key areas of need.
About our Employment work
When ELBA’s employment and skills programme was established in 2005, its mandate was simple; to engage our member companies in the local unemployment agenda and help disadvantaged people from East London into work. Since then, we have supported over 6, 000 people into work, thousands more have benefitted from work experience placements, internships, mentors and training.
Equibalance
The EquiBalance project, supported by Barings since 2022, targets and engages young black male and female students who are studying at London based sixth form schools and colleges to improve their long-term earnings prospects by helping them to develop key employability skills and gain access to valuable work experience. The model is designed to target and engage Global Majority students aged 15-18 and support them through a series of bespoke skill development, career awareness and confidence boosting workshops in preparation for applying for a summer or half-term internship.
The role
After 2 successful years of delivery, we are recruiting a part time coordinator to elevate the project through a highly effective project plan. The postholder will work within the Employment and Skills team, supporting our work with Global majority students aged 15-18. The position is part time until the end of the project year in November 2025.
