Hear from our
2024 Ambassadors
Get inspired by their journeys and see how they made their mark! ✨
"As a CFG Ambassador, I am driven to inspire individuals to step out of their comfort zones and embrace change, just as I have in my transformative career switch to tech."
"I became a CFG Ambassador because they are the reason I changed from education to tech! Additionally, people still don’t know enough about CFG and how empowering they are, and all of the amazing opportunities they have to help you through different problems"
“Alongside my day-to-day job, I was inspired to apply for the CFG Ambassador program. I knew this role would enable me to empower other women, advocate for diversity and help contribute meaningfully while giving back to the community.”

AMBASSADOR ROLE
FAQS
Yes, the full job description and details of the role will be published when applications re-open.
There are paid parts of the CFG Ambassador role with the external events and speaking appearances. For these activities, we pay £30 per hour. The initial engagement will be a freelance contract for the role of CFG Ambassador and the number of paid opportunities is estimated at around 2-3 per Ambassador (depending on interest to take part).
We would expect you to commit to the Ambassador programme for 12 months, over this period, and excluding the paid opportunities, we anticipate that this would be a commitment of around ~50 hours for all roundtables, events, L&D training and activities outlined above (with complete flexibility around in-person attendance, prior commitments, work and so forth).
If your initial application is successful we will invite you to complete a video interview (self recorded). Those who are successful are then selected to join an interview with the CFG team. The programme commences in January 2025.
