SEO London

📣 Last call for students and early career change-makers to join the Skills Gap Hackathon taking place next week at RICS! The Land Collective, Gen Z Recruitz, SEO London, HerEstate Network, YouthBuild Ventures UK, RICS Matrics UK, London & South East

I was honoured to deliver the keynote address at the recent SEO London Masterclass hosted at UBS.   SEO London is a charity that connects talented students from underrepresented backgrounds with career opportunities in competitive industries. This afternoon event welcomed over 80 enthusiastic students, all eager to explore roles across UBS's Investment Bank, Wealth Management, Asset Management and Group Functions.   The students gained valuable insights into life at UBS and the various entry points available—from Spring Week programmes to internships and our graduate scheme.   A heartfelt thank you to all the students for their energy and engagement, and to Lisa McNeil-Duncan, our Campus Recruitment team and SEO London for their seamless coordination. I look forward to seeing many of these bright individuals take their first steps towards a rewarding career at UBS.   #shareubs

With the new academic year beginning, the SEO London Income & Partnership Development (IPD) team is gearing up to grow our network of partners and open new opportunities for talented students and alumni.   The aim is simple: build partnerships, connect SEO London to like-minded firms and create pathways that help under resourced talent thrive.   A great example of what this looks like in practice is our new partnership with the Coach Foundation. Together, we’ve launched SEO London’s first retail & fashion collaboration through the 'Dream It Real' programme, providing scholarships, mentoring and career development opportunities for 35 undergraduate students.   'Dream It Real' is the signature initiative of the Coach Foundation, created to support under resourced students around the globe in pursuing higher education, discovering their purpose and achieving financial and personal stability. Launched in 2018, the programme has already awarded over 7,000 scholarships (outpacing its original goal) while also reaching more than 170,000 young people with mentoring, resources and holistic support. Every introduction to a potential partner helps us expand into new industries, new sectors and new opportunities for our community.   If your organisation would like to explore a partnership with SEO London, reach out to our amazing team at [email protected] #PartnershipsThatMatter #SEOLondon #SocialMobility #ImpactThroughPartnership #CorporateResponsibility #CareerDevelopment #Scholarships #MentoringMatters

An incredible achievement! Congratulations to all 38 cyclists who took on this extraordinary challenge in support of SEO London! 🚴🏾♀️💪🏽

We’re proud to share the first in our Black History Month series of spotlights celebrating social justice rebels who embody courage, equity and change. We begin with Olive Morris (1952–1979), a fearless community activist who dedicated her short but extraordinary life to fighting racial and gender injustice. Proof that even at a young age you can make a big impact. Born in Jamaica and raised in South London, Olive became a leading voice in Britain’s Black liberation and feminist movements; co-founding the Brixton Black Women’s Group and the Organisation of Women of African and Asian Descent. Her work championed solidarity, education and the power of community to challenge inequality. Read more about the fearless Olive Morris: https://lnkd.in/es2rmZ89 At SEO London, we continue to honour her legacy through our commitment to access, representation and inclusion. This month, we were proud to be Property Week’s charity partner for the amazing Inspiring Women in Property Awards night and our Law team hosted a masterclass to empower aspiring Black lawyers through mentorship, skills-building, and networking. One of many such endeavours which continue to empower Black heritage students all year round. #BlackHistoryMonth #SEOLondon #OliveMorris #EquityInAction #RepresentationMatters #BHM #Rebel #Liberty #Freedom #Access
