We want to say BIG thank you to another one of our

We want to say BIG thank you to another one of our awesome coaches, Jo Williams, who has taken the time to coach our 2020 cohort. Jo has been wonderful with our students, helping them to connect to their strengths and the value that they as individuals will be bringing to future employers! This phase of our BFS programme is KEY as it gives our students the confidence in themselves to put into practise all they have learned! Thanks SO much for your time and energy, Jo!

Here is a little more about Jo:
After working in HR and Talent for nearly 25 years, Jo set up her own coaching and HR consultancy practice, CoachPath in 2019. She now works with organisations and individuals providing executive/career coaching with a strong focus on supporting women and parents. Jo does however really enjoy coaching a broad range of people at different stages in their life and career. Most recently, Jo has been doing interview coaching. Jo’s approach is calm, supportive and pragmatic, focused on clear outcomes and goals for success. She is super passionate about helping people to connect with their personal values and to develop a greater sense of purpose and sense of direction.

We are so grateful to have had Lee Hawkins working

We are so grateful to have had Lee Hawkins working with our students this year as a coach, helping our awesome cohort to unleash their potential!

Here's a bit of background on Lee!

Lee works with a wide range of amazing people, organisations and leaders to inspire and motivate forward momentum, take on new roles, reduce imposter syndrome and over-achieve on KPIs and targets.

Prior to becoming a Coach and setting up his own coaching consultancy, he worked in Media & Marketing for two decades running clients like Apple and Microsoft.

Full circle, he now coaches their top talent. Lee was part of a Dentsu Aegis Network team that took on Brixton Finishing School talent in their first year and has coached many of their alumni in the past 24 months. Thanks Lee for your time and commitment!

Lynette Murphy is one of our founding members and

Lynette Murphy is one of our founding members and has been absolutely crucial to the growth of Brixton Finishing School!

Her ability to make our students feel comfortable and to help them to have faith in themselves and their own abilities has been one of the key drivers of success for our cohort. We are so grateful to have such a passionate and talented coach on our team!

Here are some of the things our students say about @ellemurf!

"Lynette has a very calming and approachable energy that makes it very easy to talk to her and ask the silliest questions. Her coaching has helped me get over the anxiety of posting and putting myself out there on social media. As a consequence, I now actively engage on LinkedIn and Twitter and have made loads of meaningful relationships. I am extremely grateful for all her guidance and support."

- @muskaan.razdan

"Lynette's coaching was such a great way to start the BFS course! It let us get a headstart with our social presence in ways I hadn't ever considered before and this meant I was ready to use it throughout the course and in my future. It was a really great way to start getting our names out there and making sure we were connecting with the right people"
- @laraeyre

Thank you, Lynette! You are a star!

We want to say a big thank you to some of the amazing coaches who have been working with our students in the last couple of weeks! We all know that putting into practise what we have learned to launch ourselves into the career world can feel a little daunting, and our coaches have been fantastic in motivating our students through that!

The first of our coaches we would like to thank is the wonderful Charlotte!
Charlotte Reich is the co-founder of training and coaching consultancy, Thrive. Having worked in the world of media and advertising for nearly 20 years, Charlotte launched Thrive to support organisations and individuals reach their full potential. She believes passionately that everyone has the opportunity and ability to enjoy what they do, develop themselves and ultimately thrive at work.

Charlotte, you are fantastic! Thank you for your time and passion!

Students from the ace @BrixtonFSchool talk about how adland can be more accessible, inclusive & respectful. This issue's been going on since I was starting out [23,000 years ago] so when will we as an industry start listening rather than pretending to. https://tinyurl.com/y3xkw386

A 2-way mentoring programme: over 3 months the pairs will share experiences to provide new perspectives. It aims to equip untapped talent with skills to break into the industry, whilst allowing those already in it to understand the current entry level climate for job seekers!

This month we kicked off our partnership with @BrixtonFSchool. We paired 30 senior marketers with graduates of the programme, which aims to increase the representation of the under-represented in creative industries.
