Creating opportunities
Skills can be learnt, so we hire on cultural fit first before anything else. Our leaders are dedicated to recruiting the right people and developing our own talent.
At the top of our agenda is creating opportunities for communities and people to thrive – employing within our communities, for our communities. As a Group, we’re one of only 18 businesses across the country to have been recognised in the Queen’s Awards for Enterprise for Promoting Opportunity through Social Mobility, which recognises our contribution to the region through employing local people, investing in talent, giving back to communities, and supporting the regional economy.
to be a world class regional company
a best company to work for
Our people do the talking, and that’s why we’ve been recognised in the Best Companies to Work For accreditation nine times in a row, recently maintaining our 3-star accreditation in the UK Best Companies survey, which quite literally distinguishes us as a ‘World Class’ company to work for.
Best Companies is the number one specialist for workplace and employee engagement in the UK and its survey also powers the Sunday Times Best Companies to Work For list. We’ve entered the Sunday Times Best 100 Companies to work for five times in the past 10 years and have been successful in making the top 100 every time.

THROUGH SOCIAL MOBILITY
Join us for work experience
Promoting opportunity
With a purpose beyond profit, our strategy and vision is centred around providing activities or training to help people from disadvantaged backgrounds develop both hard and soft skills, as well as building upon aspirations and increasing motivation.
We deliver value for the communities we serve, creating opportunities for people to be involved in projects, supporting communities, charity groups and pioneering initiatives to support people who need it.
"It was a fantastic opportunity for the young people involved to add experience to their CV and help them gain confidence to take with them into future employment."
Graduates, apprentices and trainees
Gateway Programme
Our GATEway programme supports those looking for graduate roles, apprenticeships, traineeships or seeking work experience.
In a recent partnership with Humber-based charity Cat Zero, we launched a summer internship programme as one initiative to open opportunities to people who may not have otherwise had them. Twelve participants took part in a month of paid work across Sewell Group businesses to give them valuable experience in a bid to help them into the job market. They were matched with different areas of the business including FM, Sewell Construction, Shared Agenda and Professional Services.
