At Teamworks Karting, we know what it feels like to put someone in the driving seat and watch them go. The idea that the right environment unlocks real potential is exactly what Teamworks Hub is built on.
Teamworks Hub is our employability and social impact initiative, powered by Teamworks Karting. It’s where the energy of the race track meets real opportunity for young people who need it most.
Q: So, what exactly is Teamworks Hub?
Teamworks Hub designs and delivers employability and enrichment programmes for young people aged 19-29 who aren’t currently in employment, education or training. We work in partnership with employers and local authorities across the West Midlands to create clear, credible pathways into the world of work.
This isn’t a box-ticking exercise. It’s a structured, hands-on programme that gives participants real skills, real confidence, and a real shot at sustainable employment.
Q: What do participants get out of it?
A lot! Each cohort works through a six-session programme covering CV writing, interview techniques, professional communication, financial literacy, mental health awareness, and goal setting. Participants also get access to Springpod, a virtual work experience platform with over 100 career sectors to explore, and benefit from employer panels, one-to-one support, and covered travel costs.
Oh, and there’s karting. Because if you’re going to build confidence and teamwork, you may as well do it on track.
Q: How does it wrap up?
The programme culminates in Talent Finders Day, a dedicated recruitment event held at Teamworks Birmingham City in Digbeth. Participants walk in prepared, CV in hand, and meet 20+ employers with live entry-level roles ready to fill.
Q: What’s in it for businesses?
Direct access to motivated, work-ready candidates, without the usual recruitment noise. Every person who walks through the door on Talent Finders Day has completed structured employability training. They’re prepared, confident, and ready to add value from day one.
Previous Talent Finders Days have attracted employers from retail, healthcare, technology, social care, security, and more. Companies like Barclays, Pertemps and Care UK have already been part of it.
Q: Is there a cost to exhibit?
No. Attendance is free for job seekers. Exhibiting is free for employers. Teamworks Hub exists to create impact, not to charge for access. Bring your team, bring your live roles, and bring the opportunity.
Q: Why Teamworks Hub?
Because the race track has always been about more than fast laps. It’s about building something together: crews, teams, shared moments under pressure. Teamworks Hub takes that same ethos and applies it to something that matters beyond race night.
We believe a business like ours has a responsibility to the communities around it. And we believe that the young people coming through Teamworks Hub have everything they need to go the distance. They just need the right starting grid.
