equipping people to achieve their potential

Pinnacle People Work Learning Life

About Us Pinnacle People exists to maximise the job opportunities available for people

who are currently unemployed or under-represented in the labour market. Our

impact is to promote economic and social inclusion, and tackle the high levels of

poverty and worklessness seen in too many communities.

We use our understanding of what’s needed and apply our expertise, global best

practices, high quality tools and innovative ways of working to create solutions.

We understand the power of place. We are part of the Pinnacle Regeneration

Group which currently delivers public services to over 750,000 people each year.

Fifteen years delivering frontline services in communities has given us great

insight into what works and what doesn’t, and the real issues which prevent

people making positive choices about work, learning and life.

We currently operate at the heart of communities across England and offer

nationwide coverage in combination with existing Pinnacle Regeneration Group

services for people and communities, delivered by our sister companies Pinnacle

PSG and Regenter, ensuring swift commencement of service delivery and

integration with existing partnerships and networks.

How We Work

We use highly developed customer insight to design intelligent solutions and

continually refresh this insight in order to build customer loyalty.

We are a values led organisation with a strong belief in doing things the

right way. We never overlook the importance of how we deliver.

We have an innovative and entrepreneurial approach to every aspect of our

business while at the same time creating social capital.

Pinnacle People Recruitment

We provide permanent and interim work solutions with a genuine focus on

helping candidates achieve wage and career progression, thus delivering a

committed and motivated workforce with corresponding benefits in terms of

attendance, productivity and retention.

We are specialists in the supply of candidates to the housing, facilities and

environment sectors, industries where Pinnacle has over fifteen years

experience, meaning we understand employers requirements and what makes a

good employee; and the requirements of public services and PFI contracts.

Employability Skills Profiling ensures our candidates have the right skills

Managed temp to perm option for all positions

Targeted candidate attraction activities to maximise workforce diversity and

employment opportunities for under-represented groups

Job Creation

Our team works with employers to create jobs which reduce youth

unemployment through projects of community benefit. Sample projects

undertaken by Pinnacle’s trainees include environmental improvements and

customer service support for housing associations.

Pinnacle People provide all employees with initial training, personal protective

equipment, on-going mentoring and careers advice. Host employers are simply

required to determine suitable projects and provide on the job supervision.

This activity is delivered by Pinnacle People Enterprises CIC, a not for profit

organisation, as part of the Government’s Future Jobs Fund initiative which

covers participants wages for six months and project costs.

Welfare to Work Programmes Pinnacle People offer a complete end-to-end service for supporting individuals to

explore and attain a sustainable return to work. Our approach is based on a five

stage model for maximising progression:

1. Engagement and Understanding

2. Breaking Barriers

3. Skills Development

4. Preparation for Work

5. Better Off in Work

Our Job Coaches provide each person with a

tailored programme based on their job goals, skill

development needs and the issues which make it

harder for them to find and sustain work.

Work Placements

Our Work Placement programme is designed to increase the calibre of job

applicants and productivity of new employees, by giving candidates the opportunity

to develop their employability skills in a real-time working environment before they
