Getting involved in a formal programme allows structured learning with someone outside of your organisation. The programme is practical and the relationship is driven by the mentee. The schedule is decided on by the pair to suit the needs and commitments of both parties. Mentoring can be hugely valuable for both parties; it can improve skills, confidence and career development.
Mentoring is a well-recognised, powerful tool that enables people to make connections and allow deep, two way learning. At PromaxBDA UK we are committed to cultivating leaders and building on the skill sets across the industry at all levels.
Who's eligible for the scheme?
Anyone can apply to be mentored or you may wish to consider becoming a mentor yourself. We are looking for people across the industry and from all backgrounds – marketing, creative, production and media planning.
mentee
Enhance your confidence and determination
Learn how to build, sustain and maintain professional relationships
Build your own professional network
You and your mentor are busy and you have a lot going on. PromaxBDA UK Mentoring scheme takes this into account and we ask that you, the mentee, drives the relationship and takes responsibility for the scheduling of the meetings. The frequency is defined by the pair but we ask that you have 3-5 sessions over a 9 – 12 month period. We will check in every 6 months to see how it is going and are always available to answer any questions.

Our mentors are all experienced media and creative professionals, who can offer a friendly face and a chance to ask career or personal development advice in a safe, relaxed environment.
Mentoring is often an excellent way to enhance your career, obtain some extra support and guidance at a time when you might want to try something new, or have just made a career change. For many people, getting a mentor is a life-changing experience which offers insight and assistance that wouldn’t have otherwise been available to them.
