Business Advisor for young people
Become a business advisor for young people who are setting up their very own businesses, whilst still at school. You will be getting involved with a project set up by a charity that has years of experiene in supporting many thousands of young people gain experience in business.
About the project
 Young people at schools come up with a business idea and are supported in the process of setting up a company. The company becomes operational, and at the end of the school year the company is disolved. Students wishing to re-start their company on their own accord are able to do so. The primary goal of the project is giving young people experience in technicalities of being entrepreneurial and setting up a business - but at the same time those companies that are successful have the opportunity to win awards from amongst hundreds of similar (young people run) companies across Europe.
Your role
Your role as business advisor can span across the broad spectrum of expertise required in the busines environment. Management and Research, Finance Work, Legal Work, Marketing, PR and Media. You may be an employee, run your own business or have aspirations to do so in the future. Enthusiasm and an interest in encouraging young people to achieve their potential are more important than specific business knowledge. Full training and support provided.
This is an exciting opportunity to transfer your skills in the business environment for young people who want to get experience with setting up and running a company.
