A new PPA Paid Work Experience pilot has been developed, and we’re inviting PPA members to get involved.

This programme, building on the PPA’s Good Hiring initiative, is designed to help address the challenges of both finding roles for applicants and creating a framework for employers with practical benefits for your teams.

Contact Genevieve.miller@ppa.co.uk to receive the PPA Paid Work Experience Employer Guide and find out how you can take part.

Why get involved?

An extra pair of hands and a new perspective

Hosting a paid work experience participant offers flexible, additional support at a time when teams are often stretched. Participants can contribute to live projects, bring different thinking, and offer insight into emerging audiences, platforms and trends.

Discover and develop future talent

Placements (typically around four weeks) create an opportunity to connect with potential future hires, while opening the industry to individuals who may not otherwise have access through structured, paid opportunities.

Designed to work for your business

We’ve developed a practical, flexible framework to support members at every stage. The PPA Employer Guide will provide clear direction on planning and delivering placements, from onboarding through to project design across different business areas.

This programme has been designed by the PPA’s Next Gen Board, ensuring it reflects both the needs of employers and the expectations of emerging talent.
