PE Direct has a clear mission to reach the most vulnerable learners, and we take great pride in making matches that will not only change lives but also impact futures. Ben’s placement with AL Direct showcases the powerful impact these matches can have.

When a friend recommended Ben get in touch with PE Direct, his story began, like many others, to find meaningful employment after his degree. Armed with a degree in sport and exercise science from Swansea University and a passion for coaching American football, little did he know that his call to us would lead to something a little different.

Ben’s passion and potential were evident from the start, and despite an initial opportunity not materialising, our experienced team quickly matched him with our sister company, AL Direct.  Dedicated to providing alternative learning provision in community settings, AL Direct was a perfect fit.

Ben has recently started his position as a Learning Mentor for a small group provision in Bridgend and has made a fantastic start.  Stuart Davies, Managing Director at AL Direct, said,

“Ben has proved to be very diligent and hardworking and has struck up great relationships with the students in the group in a very small space of time. Well done, Ben, and many thanks to PE Direct for another fantastic addition to our team.”

Reflecting on his journey so far, Ben expressed that, “it is already the most rewarding job I’ve ever had, and I could not be happier.”

“It’s been a pleasure seeing the benefits as they (the students) become increasingly receptive to the theory and academic work. Observing the positive outcomes for the students’ wellbeing.”

The feedback from both AL Direct and Ben demonstrates the amazing impact of making the right match, and we are over the moon. Well done, Ben, on the remarkable impact you are already making with AL Direct.
