Partnerships and Working with Us

Birkdale Collective value our strong partnerships with Universities, Charities, Independent Businesses and Associations very seriously. Our company was founded in 2021 and we have forged long standing relationships with some amazing people working in amazing places.

Universities and Educational Institutions

“Birkdale Collective offers highly insightful career coaching sessions that have become a staple for our students at the University of Manchester. With a keen focus on supporting international students adapting to UK cultural change, Peter’s friendly and knowledgeable approach fosters confidence and success. As a longstanding client of our university, his sessions consistently garner a lot of interest from our international students, and for good reason!”

— Ghazi Ausaf, Business Development Coordinator, The University of Manchester Careers Service

Our University partners have allowed us to speak with some excellent students over the years via numerous methods of delivery. We have conducted group seminars and workshops, taken part in career fairs and delivered individual sessions. Our work has been done both in cooperation with University Career Services and as a part of MBA courses.

Birkdale Collective clearly know their market and the talk enhanced understanding of UK employers and what they expect.
