When you were first looking for a career, did you wish you could talk to someone who was actually doing what you thought you might want to do, or someone who had done the same course as you? Ever wish that you knew someone in a particular company who could tell you what it really is like, and if the training scheme is any good?

Now that you are working, would you be prepared to help the current generation of Grey students with exactly that sort of information? Even if you've retired, your experience and advice can also be useful.

The 'Careers Angels' scheme has been running since March 2005, and this website already shows the names, e-mail addresses and career details of nearly 600 Grey Alumni who have offered to help.

There's still room for plenty more support – we need Alumni who work in areas we don't yet fully cover (like the performing arts, social media and the energy industries amongst others), as well as more recent graduates who can offer advice on company training schemes, assessment centres and so on.

Where you live is not important – initial contact is through e-mail and we have a number of overseas Angels already. The experience so far is that most Angels get 1 or 2 mails a term, but that probably depends on how much information you offer in your website biography.

Information will be maintained on the websites by the Association and full compliance with all relevant legislation is ensured. It must be clearly understood by all involved that any advice or information given by the Grey 'Careers Angels' is in confidence, and without prejudice.

For more details, please contact Steve Gregory (alumnus 1965–1969) on 01793 852860 or stevegregory2004@yahoo.co.uk.
