Working at 2027

What we do

 

2027 is a new, paid job and professional development programme that prepares brilliant professionals from working-class backgrounds for decision making roles in the grant-giving sector.

The programme, which kicks off in 2018, will take on 15 associates each year over the course of 10 years. These individuals will start a movement that fundamentally changes the skillset, approach and class makeup of senior teams at foundations and trusts.

2027 is a coalition between four of the UK’s leading organisations dedicated to social change:

Charityworks is the UK non-profit sector’s graduate scheme, recruiting and developing brilliant talent to shape the leadership of third sector organisations. Charityworks will host the 2027 programme.

Reclaim is a youth leadership and social change organisation that helps give voice to working class young people.

Ten Years’ Time is a consultancy that pairs ambitious philanthropists with disruptive causes and ideas.

Koreo is a talent development consultancy dedicated to social change. They mobilise talent to address the defining social issues of our time.

Thanks to our combined experience and comprehensive cross-sector knowledge, we’re able to deliver a supportive and highly effective 12-month programme, built carefully around the needs of both our associates and host organisations.

2027 is supported by Big Lottery Fund, Esmee Fairbairn and Barrow Cadbury Trust.
