M3 Job Club

The M3 Job Club has been in operation since April 2011 and has two simple aims:

Vision: To become a recognised community service offering a talent resource for local business to increase employment opportunities and connect members to business. Our philosophy: We take a business-led, coaching style approach to guide members who already have enough people telling them what to do, to help them retake control of their situation.

The Job Club supports professionals in the North Hampshire region who are going through redundancy, or similar transition, as they source their next role.

We provide an environment for people to network, share experiences and support each other in a positive, learning environment whilst gaining knowledge and advice. We work with a number of SME and Corporate local companies in and around Basingstoke. Members attend from a wide region covering North Hampshire, Berkshire and Surrey. The 16 week, business-focused and coaching-led programme is run by professionals from businesses who all donate their time for free in a creative and positive way.

Facts and Figures:

People attend do so of their own volition demonstrating their eagerness to work

• 300+ people already supported back to work = ~1.6 per week
• Average attendance of 30+ each week
• Superb feedback from current and past members
• Over 950 past and present members

The programme adds real value to those who are out of work and paying their own way to travel over 50 miles to attend
