We are thrilled to share the inspiring story of Marcello Rinaldi, a 48-year-old Lambeth resident who transformed his career prospects with the support of a local employment programme. After being out of work for over two years, Marcello joined the programme determined to improve his employability and rebuild his confidence.
Through tailored activities such as soft skills workshops, mock interviews, and one-on-one coaching, Marcello gained valuable insights into the job application process. His caseworkers provided both practical guidance and emotional encouragement, supporting him every step of the way.
Reflecting on his journey, Marcello shared, “The programme wasn’t just about gaining new skills—it was about empowerment. It strengthened my determination, patience, and resilience. The mock interviews were invaluable and helped me to score highly during the real interview. When I received the job offer, it was a moment of immense relief. This achievement is proof of the importance of having a strong and reliable support network.”
With their support, Marcello secured one of the Executive Officer positions with the Department for Work and Pensions.
Stay tuned for more success stories like Marcello’s as we continue to support our Lambeth residents on their path to career success with local employers!
