Reed in Partnership

Reed in Partnership operates with a core mission to positively transform people and their communities. Since its inception, the company has been dedicated to delivering public services that empower individuals to improve their lives. The organization supports people, their families, and their local areas to prosper, often in challenging circumstances. Through its diverse range of services, Reed in Partnership helps individuals find employment, enhance their health and wellbeing, develop new skills, and ultimately fulfil their potential. The company's services are extensive, covering employment support, skills and training, health and wellbeing programs, justice services for prison leavers, youth support, and e-assessments. Millions of people across the United Kingdom have benefited from these services, using them as a catalyst for positive change. The company's approach is rooted in three core values that have been consistent for over 25 years: being fair, open, and honest; taking ownership; and working together. These principles guide every decision and action, shaping the company's culture and its impact on society.

Established in April 1998 with a single office in Hackney, Reed in Partnership was one of the UK's pioneering employment support service providers. As its expertise and successful track record grew, the company expanded its operations to deliver services across the nation. It is a key part of the Reed Group, the UK's largest family-owned recruitment company, which was founded by Sir Alec Reed in 1960. This connection to a larger, established brand provides a strong foundation for its operations. A unique aspect of the company's structure is its commitment to philanthropy; 18% of the Reed Group is owned by the Reed Foundation, meaning the company effectively works one day a week for charity. This foundation, established in 1985, has supported thousands of charitable projects. This family-owned, socially conscious ethos is fundamental to the company's workplace culture, its strategic decisions, and how it treats its employees and the communities it serves, growing from a single office to an organization employing thousands across more than 120 offices.
