"Working with Fairplace Cedar through our Intranet and web-linked platforms we are able to provide the widest possible accessibility to all our 3,200 staff. This is why developing a web solution made sense, logistically as well as financially.
The site brings a range of relevant resources, materials and activities that help individuals understand their career goals, align their aspirations with appropriate opportunities in the business and practical support in preparing for application and interview.
Most significantly in terms of internal progression and recruitment we expect to soon have better prepared candidates because of the platform and the campaign. The subsequent career conversations will be better informed, and over time we expect to see a greater success rate in terms of internal promotion as well as the ability to fill key vacancies in a more time and cost-efficient manner.”

“Fairplace Cedar provided a comprehensive 'in placement support' programme as well as outplacement. This was very much appreciated by the individuals who took advantage of this. Many people had not undergone an assessment or job interview in quite some time so having the opportunity to plan for this and discuss with career professionals was hugely beneficial.”
“Feedback confirmed that the support helped many people move into new roles within the organisation and that the Fairplace Cedar coaches were a highly committed and professional team”

"It was incredibly important to us that we supported our people who were taking on new challenges and looking to the future. Quite a lot of effort had gone into supporting those leaving the organisation – and we felt those who were the bedrock of ITV’s future should have the chance to reassess and reorient themselves to a new future. I was delighted with the feedback – and we are planning some expanded sessions in the future to build on the work we have done."

"I was impressed by the range and flexibility of help that Fairplace Cedar offered me.
I had been thinking of setting up my own investment consultancy practice for a long time, but had found it a daunting prospect. In particular I was worried that there was a risk or potential pitfall that I hadn't even considered. I found the courses at Fairplace Cedar invaluable in giving me the confidence to take the plunge. So much so that we have hired one of the tutors, David Mellor, as a mentor on an ongoing basis for our new company."
