This article will explore the pedagogy and outcomes leading to findings which support the theoretical underpinning of an employer engagement programme with young people, Step Up for Success (SU4S). This was possible as a result of an evaluative case study of a programme that occurred in partnership with a secondary school, a third party facilitator, a large international employer, and a careers professional acting as researcher. Central to the theme covered here is how the impact of the programme might relate to the learning of career management skills by the young people, which could have implications beyond this individual case study.
