What is SMF?

The Social Mobility Foundation (SMF) is a charity which aims to make a practical improvement in social mobility for young people. The SMF was founded in 2005 by Linkson Jack (who served as Chief Executive until January 2009) in order to provide opportunities, and networks of support for 16-17 year olds who are unable to get them from their schools or families.

They now work with young people from all across the UK in the years prior to and during university, and their Aspiring Professionals Programme offers tailored support across 11 career sectors including law.

Volunteer with SMF Recruitment Success Service

The SMF Recruitment Success Service offers undergraduate students tailored support throughout the recruitment process; from having a chat about the sector and what to expect, to writing a CV, to participating in mock interviews. Volunteers support in different aspects of this process and provide feedback by phone or email.

The service runs year-around but students require the most support between Sept-Dec for CVs and Nov-Feb for interview/assessment practice. SMF would let you know when there is a student requiring support and put you both in touch. Please note SMF are not recruiting for additional volunteers with the RSS at this time.
