Investment company launches £50,000 in-kind apprentice scheme

LONDON, England – If there is anything that the last six months have taught us, it’s that life can be unpredictable, and we need to create and maintain sustainable streams of income. Milmillennials and young people in particular can find it hard to start and grow businesses.

That’s why S J Global Investments have launched an intensive business support package where one 18 – 30-year-old will win £50,000 in kind.

The winner will receive:

• Desk Space for two persons at one of our offices for a year
• Twenty hours mentoring from S J Global exec team to learn about business and entrepreneurship including one to one’s with CEO, CFO and executive team;
• A six-page website;
• 3 x months social media management, software (Adobe suite + Microsoft Office);
• Trip to Dubai for five days includes return air ticket; accommodation, bed and breakfast as well as spending four days at S J Global Dubai office;
• Professional 5-year business plan and cash flow forecast;

• Black Book of exclusive business contacts within a specific industry;
• Business stationery, logo, business cards value;
• 10 x business mastermind sessions;
• Photoshoot with a professional photographer.

The number of unemployed young people in the UK has rocketed over the last six months, with some regions reporting a rise of over a quarter. The scheme will help to create jobs and equip the winner with what they need to create jobs for others and also expand their business mentoring.

S J Global has offices over 26 countries and is passionate about assisting young entrepreneurs and feels it’s their corporate responsibility to make a difference.

“As a company, we cannot sit back and do nothing. The world has changed drastically, and we have a duty to help. I’m hoping the apprentice scheme will create jobs, and change the lives of a number of young people, as the winner takes the reigns and builds a long-lasting business that can survive any financial climate,” says group managing director Neil Walsh.
