We know it can be hard to switch off when you’re working for a mission-driven company, undergoing rapid growth. That’s why the whole company will be switching off, once a quarter. Every individual is different so there are no rules about how to spend the day, but we’re encouraging everyone to take care of themselves on their day off. We know this isn’t the only solution and that’s why we have a number of initiatives designed to support our people with their wellbeing.
Yesterday, we celebrated International Women’s Day 🎉 and…it’s got us thinking, what does breaking the bias mean to you? For us, breaking the bias across industries and education systems is crucial to empowering a diverse group of future leaders in tech. The fact is, the tech industry in particular has a diversity problem. Only 5% of Software Engineers and just 19% of the tech workforce as a whole, are women. At Multiverse 36% of our software engineering apprentices and 43% of our tech apprentices (software + data) are women. Internally, 56% of Multiverse employees and 73% at Director level and above are women. Whilst this shows higher representation than the industry as a whole, we know we need to do even more, so we will continue working hard to unlock access to the best tech careers for women through apprenticeships.
Elizabeth Naameh was the first Data Coach to join our US team and she delivers our Data apprenticeship program, democratizing access to great careers for people across America. In this blog, Elizabeth shares how she transitioned from a Computer Science Teacher to a Data Coach at Multiverse - the perfect combination of her skills and ambitions.
Congratulations to our coach of the month, Annie Woodcock 🎉 Annie’s purposeful coaching style gets results and she doesn’t waste any time in sharing those results with the rest of the coaching team. But what stands out the most in apprentices’ minds is the support they get during the more challenging parts of their learning journey. People Leadership Apprentice, Charlotte sums it up best.
We're always looking for exceptional people to help us supercharge our mission to empower a diverse group of future leaders through apprenticeships and that's why we offer exceptional benefits too.
Just 6 years ago, we started out with a bold mission. Now we’re a team of 500 incredible people across the US and UK. It’s fair to say a lot has changed. We’ve gone through multiple rounds of record-breaking funding and we now have a community of over 5000 apprentices working for over 300 of the world’s most exciting companies. But there’s one thing that’s remained exactly the same since the day we started and that’s our mission. We’re empowering a diverse group of future leaders through apprenticeships, unlocking access to the best careers and opening up routes to the boardroom for people throughout their career journey. Our mission is as bold as it was on the day the company was founded and we need amazing people to continue achieving it. So, if you’re looking for the next step on your career journey, consider taking that step with Multiverse: https://www.multiverse.io/en-GB/careers

We’re delighted to welcome our sixth cohort of Associate Coaches to the Multiverse Academy.

When they graduate from the Academy, Associates become Multiverse Coaches, taking on their own dedicated cohorts and making an impact on the lives of apprentices every single day.

Multiverse, a UK startup that works with organizations to develop these apprenticeships, and then helps source promising, diverse candidates to fill those roles, has raised $44 million, funding that it will be using to spearhead a move into the US market after picking up some 300 clients in the UK and thousands of apprentices.
