Social Mobility at MCG Consulting
Social mobility in the workplace isn’t just fair, it’s good for business too.
We build mentoring ecosystems that transform lives, shift cultures, and unlock potential that too often goes unseen. Our work is trusted by major law firms, financial institutions, and national bodies.
What We Offer
Firm-to-Firm Organisational Mentoring
A national programme transforming how sectors approach social mobility.
MCG leads the Firm-to-Firm Mentoring Programme in partnership with Progress Together, with over 25 financial services organisations taking part.
The model is simple and powerful. We match organisations at different stages of the socio-economic inclusion journey and create structured peer-to-peer mentoring across senior leadership teams.
Participants take part in:
-
At least three strategic mentoring exchanges per year
-
Four expert-led masterclasses
-
Data-informed deep dives into topics such as disclosure, progression, and socio-economic metrics
The result is a culture of shared learning and sector-wide accountability. Firms move beyond statements and into action, building credible and consistent strategies that improve equity at every level.
This model can be adapted for other sectors. Whether you are a law firm, a membership body, or a cross-industry coalition, MCG can help you lead from the front.
