I help employers become the go-to choice for diverse talent.

After working in 4 different industries. 
I noticed employers faced these challenges:

1) Spending a lot of money on recruitment-related costs 
2) Unable to engage effectively with diverse candidates 
3) Limited awareness of their employer brand online  
4) Struggling to attract & retain quality candidates

So, I quit my job to solve these challenges. 
↳ Dramatic, I know!

Here’s the process I developed: 

- Understanding the Employee Value Proposition (EVP)
- Promoting the EVP via influencers/content creators 
- Hosting recruitment events at key hiring locations
- Capturing Employee Generated Content (EGC)
- Distributing the EGC on social media 

The results so far: 

- 104 candidates hired to date
- 95.6% staff retention rate on hires 
- 98.5% of candidates hired are diverse
- Over 16 million candidates reached online 
- £131,000 saved on recruitment related cost 

Trusted by LinkedIn, HSBC, Samsung, Octopus Energy, 10,000 Black Interns, St James Financial Adviser Academy, and other notable organisations, my agency works with employers across any industry. 

Here’s what one of my clients had to say: 

"The quality of candidates we received through Beyond Education was exceptional, outstripping what we'd previously been able to achieve with external providers. We are beyond impressed!" - (Rebecca A Brown, Head of Legal, IQ-EQ)
