Northumbria students benefit from postgraduate support

We are delighted to work in partnership with The Castle Peak Group to support postgraduate scholarships at Northumbria University as part of the University's Higher Education Without Barriers campaign.

The scholarship will award one student with £2,000 during their one year degree. More information about the scholarship and eligible courses can be found here 

Castle Peak Group are an executive search consultancy working with like-minded organisations that share their belief in the importance of diversity and inclusion in the workplace.  They have over 15 years’ experience working with leadership teams across diverse global organisations. Their focus on diversity and inclusion is born out of a return to the UK, after working in Asia for over a decade, and recognising the need to address the glaring issue of inequality in the workplace

Founder and Chief Executive James Carss shared,

“At Castle Peak we are committed to diversity, inclusion and equality in everything we do, this includes giving fair opportunities and support to everyone. We are therefore delighted to partner with Northumbria University which supports access to higher education but also life changing experiences that will both enrich young peoples lives and the communities around us”.
