Our Story
Humble Beginnings
imployable (Fourwho Ltd) was established in 2017. However, it all started back in 2015 Co-Founder Peter Kelly left the Royal Marines after 10 years of dedicated service. After gaining industry qualifications in Project Management through the military, he believed that he’d got a passport to a job in the civilian world.
Then reality hit.
Within 3 months of leaving, he was unemployed. Highly qualified, inexperienced and unemployable. This was a situation that Peter wasn’t expecting, and it showed him just how vulnerable people can be when faced with major career transitions.
During a 9-month period of unemployment, Peter reconnected with an old Royal Marine friend, Kieron Yeoman. Kieron was running a business that actively coached and supported people into work and helped the ‘unemployable’ into meaningful employment.
Using their experiences within the employment space, from both ends of the spectrum, they came up with the ingenious idea of the imployable App.
We are passionate about
Innovation
imployable provide an ecosystem of employment innovation.
For employers, imployable Connect allows you to set clear job criteria, provide access to training courses and work experience, and communicate directly with candidates.
For job seekers and learners, our app gives users the tools to acquire training and experience to meet the requirements of a role. A user can only apply when they meet the job criteria, but they have all the guidance and information that they need to make this happen.
For employment support organisations, imployable provides ‘Cohort’, a simple to use tracking, management, and analytics platform to support all your customers through to employment. We believe that the imployable approach brings transparency and humanity to recruitment. It gives everyone the tools to find purpose in their work.
We are on
A Journey
Peter and Kieron’s collective experiences highlighted the need for a better approach to enable people to transition between careers freely and independently. They both saw the enormous benefit to business that would come from a better trained, more proactive workforce. They also saw the massive benefit to individuals that would come from better access to training and work experience. So how could these benefits be turned into reality? They set off on a journey to find out. After years of research and hard work, the journey led them to a new model for welfare and employment. Kieron and Pete set about building the imployable app concept in 2018 asking friends and family to support them through seed investments. Fast forward to today and imployable have an ecosystem of employment innovation.
