Master's Series: Newham - Enhancing Accessibility

Master Karl Jarvis has set three elements to his theme for the year – Levelling up the Playing Field – which is about creating greater accessibility to career opportunities in insurance.

Newham: Creating Accessibility "Newham is a very impoverished borough. I want to partner with existing charities that are working in Newham to see if we can create more opportunities there”, says Karl (pictured). 

We will be working with our long-term partner The Brokerage to unlock more opportunities for young people in Newham.

Two further webinars in this series will explore the other elements of the Master's theme:

• 9 June • Employing former Military Personnel – "As the son of an Army Royal Engineer and having been around the military most of my early life, it has always been very apparent to me that the military gives great training and we as an industry can benefit from that, in terms of engagement of ex-military personnel”, says Karl.

It will give people an opportunity to learn more about the skills that former military personnel can bring to the business world.

• 16 June • Neurodiversity – having a brain that thinks differently. "We know that many firms have recognised that to maximise creativity they need to think more broadly in terms of employee engagement. There are charities in this field and I’m keen to shine a light on this aspect so that we can look forward to not just a more inclusive marketplace but one that is as creative as possible."
