THE PROPOSED FIRST PILOT
Small enough to support. Practical enough to show.
Our proposed first operating year establishes senior-led commercial testing before introducing two paid junior roles for young adults aged 18–24. Recruitment follows confirmed work, funding and supervision.
- Initial junior roles
- 2 paid roles
- Proposed weekly hours
- 20 hours each
- Year-one paid period
- 26 weeks each
Learning within paid work
Junior employees would be paid for required onboarding, training and supervised client tasks. Months 1–3 build workplace and testing foundations; months 4–6 develop supervised testing. Optional specialisation follows from participant month seven, with suitable mentoring and funding.
Building a sustainable launch
We are seeking customer conversations about scoped testing work, alongside mentoring, equipment and eligible workforce support. Junior roles are proposed to begin around business month seven. Their later specialisation therefore falls in business year two and requires a continuation budget.
These are planning assumptions, not advertised vacancies. The roles are intended to continue when sustainable work and funding support them; 26 weeks is the first-year budget period, not a promised end date. Dates, venue and employment terms remain to be confirmed. Early practice uses demonstration systems; client work requires agreed access and senior review.
