The Girls' Network
Careers at The Girls' Network
The Girls' Network is an award-winning charity that supports girls aged 14-19 from the least advantaged communities by connecting them with a mentor and network of role models who are women. We have a large and growing network of supporters, mentors and schools and are facing huge demand to expand.
Escape's take on The Girls' Network
The Girls’ Network was started by Charly and Becca, who were secondary school teachers in North West London when they witnessed the multiple barriers facing girls from the least advantaged communities in their classrooms. Since 2021 they’ve been supporting teenage girls and inspiring them to reach their dreams, and it seems that they’re doing the same with their own team as well. They were reviewed in the Escape 100 by their employees as providing an inclusive, empowering and flexible work environment, where everyone has the space to “be their authentic self at work”. In a nutshell: “Everyone looks out for each other, lifts each other up and shines a light on each individual's brilliance”.
