“I lost my self belief and confidence after being made redundant at 58 years old. Smart Works provided a safe, nurturing and empowering experience that not only lifted my spirits but helped me identify areas that I needed to improve upon at my interview.”⁣⁣

♀️ 🥳Happy International Women’s Day!

We are so proud that almost a quarter of our employees are women, a figure that has grown steadily since 2018. In the past year alone, we have seen a sizeable shift in the number of women applying and securing new roles. Almost a third of all new hires have been women, up considerably on previous years.

However, we know that there is still work to be done to encourage more women into the rail industry…

That’s why this International Women’s Day, we are committing to work with @SmartWorksGM, a UK charity that exists to empower women who need help getting into work. This will allow women in the Greater Manchester area who are unemployed to access the service and come to interviews with us feeling their most confident and best selves.

Women who already hold roles at TPE will also be volunteering to support the charity through our volunteering policy, and colleagues will be able to use work time to donate up to two days each year to help more women get into work.
