Employment & Advice Services
Renaisi helps people build the confidence and capacity to find work and engage with their community.
We are passionate about creating the conditions for strong and inclusive communities to thrive. Once basic needs like housing and food have been met, we believe that secure and sustainable employment is essential for anyone trying to build a better life for themselves and their family.
We are committed to helping our customers overcome the barriers to sustainable employment so they can benefit from the social and economic security work can bring.

What we do
We deliver employment services across London on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions and local authorities, and specialist programmes for groups with distinct sets of needs such as refugees, older people, and those with long-term health conditions.
We work in partnership with a network of local services and specialist organisations that provide complementary services to our customers.
Our services help people to learn, work and connect with their community.
Learn
We provide tailored employability provision that helps individuals gain the skills they need to land the job they desire. Uniquely, our provision includes specialist ESOL learning to help refugees and migrants secure employment in the UK.
Work
We provide expert one-to-one advice and support to help people who are unemployed get into work. We offer career development plans, work experience, explore self employment, and boost confidence.
Connect
We offer ‘community inclusion’ programmes that reduce isolation, improve wellbeing, and help people to feel connected to their community.
