Working Together

Line Manager Training

Supporting young people to succeed at work starts with confident, informed managers. Our Working Together training equips line managers with the practical tools, insight and understanding to manage early-career talent effectively, build inclusive teams and turn social mobility commitments into everyday workplace practice.

What’s involved

Working Together draws on LTSB’s years of experience in youth employment, alongside academic and third-sector research. The training combines insight with practical application, helping managers understand the realities of structural inequality and build inclusive environments where underrepresented talent can perform, progress and be themselves. 

On the training, we will cover:

Understanding context and inequality

Gain a clear understanding of structural inequality and how socioeconomic background can shape early career experiences, confidence and progression in the workplace.

Inclusive recruitment and onboarding

Learn how to move beyond traditional measures of potential, avoid common pitfalls, and create recruitment and onboarding processes that set young people up to succeed from day one.

Supporting and developing early-career talent

Build the skills to manage, support and develop young people effectively, spotting integration pinch points early and creating environments where all talent can thrive.

Who it’s for

This training is designed for line managers, hiring managers, recruitment teams and senior social mobility champions. Whether your organisation is just starting out, preparing to recruit, or refining an existing approach, the course turns your commitment to social mobility into practical actions that help create inclusive, high-performing teams.

How it works

Working Together is delivered as a one-day training course, designed to fit around busy teams. Sessions can be run in person at your offices or delivered virtually, depending on what works best for your organisation.

The course is highly interactive, creating space for discussion, shared learning and practical reflection. Participants are encouraged to bring real experiences, ask questions and explore challenges together.

Success Stories

Before LTSB, I didn’t know any women working in Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths - let alone anyone who could offer me advice for getting into a professional career. LTSB played a critical role in reaching me just when I was deciding to apply for apprenticeships. This type of opportunity taught me the difference between having a job and being able to have a career.”

Success Stories

I would recommend this especially if you are looking to build your first ever strong network (your cohort). Also, this programme can serve to add more structure to your journey and put things into perspective especially if you're taking a gap year or if you're not sure about carrying on in the route you have been aiming for. Join LTSB.

Success Stories

I expected LTSB to give me exposure to the field of marketing, but it turned out to be so much more. Within just two weeks, I secured a role as a Supplier Coordinator, thanks to the confidence and organisational skills I gained during the bootcamp. LTSB not only prepared me for corporate environments but also helped me network with professionals from various companies, broadening my horizons.

Success Stories

I was absolutely clueless about what was required from me when I was submitting applications last year. I got rejected left, right and centre and I would have stayed completely demoralised if I didn't stumble across the LTSB programme. The people I met and insights I have gained has made me confident in myself and I am going into this application season feeling good and prepared to handle any interview and assessment centre that will come my way.

Success Stories

Going into my gap year, I genuinely felt like I was being thrown into the deep end. Joining the programme introduced me to students who were going through the exact same thing that I was, and who I now consider good friends. I have seen a significant difference in the person that I am today in comparison to the person I was before the programme. I have not only developed myself legally, but personally and professionally. This was one of the best decisions I made. Thank you LTSB for your unwavering support!

Success Stories

The LTSB programme helped me maximise my skill set, gain invaluable advice and make meaningful connections. I couldn’t recommend it more to anyone who is young, passionate and eager to get their foot through the door. It’s clear that everyone that works here is passionate and enthusiastic about the work that they do!
