What makes Tinker Tailor stand out is our links to the world of work and our extensive network of alumni, enabling us to offer up-to-date insights on what employers are looking for and how they assess potential. We have tinkered with the coaching tools and tailored the techniques that are traditionally used for experienced professionals, to ensure they are the perfect fit for your school’s pupils.

Tinker Tailor really know their stuff. They present extremely well to students and parents, and they really understand the ethos of the school. The calibre of trainers is excellent, and they are very in touch with the world of work, whilst being able to relate to teenagers and their needs and interests.

Tinker Tailor have alerted our parents and pupils to the skill set that current employers are looking for. Their professional team have been excellent at helping pupils recognise the skills they already have, how those skills can be developed, and they have been instrumental in making them aware of other skills they can easily acquire.

Thank you so much for the very informative session last week. I found your presentations very relevant to the current career landscape and took a lot away with me. It’s given me lots of great ideas to implement in our new Careers Plan!
