Parseq working with The Prince’s Trust

Glasgow Business Process Outsourcer Parseq is supporting The Prince’s Trust as it helps transform the lives of people aged 11 to 30 from disadvantaged backgrounds, helping them into jobs, education and training.

Earlier this year, 'Get Hired', a special event at The Prince's Trust's Wolfson Centre in Glasgow gave participants - many of whom have struggled with homelessness, mental health issues and a difficult transition out of care - the chance to use the skills they've gained with the charity to apply for permanent positions with Parseq.

Mark Wallace (21), Chris Thomas (25), Shaun McLafferty (18) and Petras Vinciauskas (21) were all successful and now work as full-time Service and Technical Advisors in the company's growing contact centre division.

Shaun McLafferty (pictured) said: "None of this would have been possible without the help of The Prince's Trust. The support and guidance I've received has been amazing. It's given me the confidence and skills I need to succeed in the workplace"

Alison Paterson, Outcomes Executive at The Prince's Trust (pictured) added: "We're really pleased to have Parseq onboard. Over the last year we've developed a great working relationship".
