Careers at the Opportunity group

Thinking about joining us?

Who are we?

We are a team of individuals with a shared love of learning, that believe that brilliant development can change lives. We are curious about the world we live in, do the right thing even when it is really hard and try our best to live our one team value every day. It isn’t about the big things, for us it is about focusing on the small things and making progress. We are not perfect and don’t always get it right, but we are creating a culture where it is safe to be our true selves and  thrive. We would love you to join us.

We are remote first and always will be, this gives us the flexibility to attract brilliant talent from anywhere and it gives you the flexibility to work in the way that suits you best. We don’t have a physical office space, so if you enjoy that type of work we are not the right place for you. Instead we get together for purposeful gatherings, team events, project meetings or to connect with one another. Technology is our friend and helps us to create meaningful relationships at a distance.

Gavin Blagden - "Our Missions is resolute. Creating opportunities for everyone to achieve their full potential. THis is passed down to use in our values; spot an issue get curios about it, we can take control of it, we can ensure the solution has a positive impact, we can make the improvement and hopefully we can learn something new along the way!"
Gemma Wells - "Our Culture and Mission at The Opportunity Group are the glue that holds everything together. To me it is the essence of everything we do - from designing the material to coaching our learners through their programme - we live and breathe it. I love how everyone embodies this and it's second nature - that's how much it means to everyone to deliver what is right!"
Jake Crehan - "Our lives are defined by opportunities, even the ones we miss, and the ability is of little account without opportunity! As Albert Einsteins quoted: "Everybody is a genius, but if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree it will live its whole life believing it's stupid". At the OPG there is no such thing as a stupid question, no task too big or small, and everyone has something to bring. That's why I choose to work for the Opportunity Group."
Joanne Jeffrey - "The reason I chose the Opportunity Group is that they gives learners opportunities without boundaries. This ensures accessibility for all. I truly believe in sharing knowledge and expertise. Maximising learning in a safe and realistic environment where all people can learn at their own pace and practice crucial skills."
Lin Hyde - "With a culture of developing talent and driving innovation in training, the Opportunity Group constantly looks for ways to tailor apprenticeship program delivery to the individual needs of the employers. Creativity and progress are at the heart of the way we work at the Opportunity Group, with experienced and passionate trainers who are great at adapting and developing new ways to deliver quality apprenticeship training that meets individual learner needs as well as customer expectations."
Tracy Watkinson - "I liked the idea of The Opportunity Group supporting the hospitality industry 'get back on its feet after COVID'. so many people were affected at this time. The values, in particular 'Do the right thing' really appeals to me; being told to follow your instincts for your learner can be rare in large companies - I like the company has enough trust in me to do what I do best."
