We’re on a mission to provide equitable access to economic opportunity, for everyone.
We close critical skill gaps in the workforce through a new kind of apprenticeship that combines work and learning. We begin by recognizing high-potential individuals both inside and outside of a company's current workforce and then we create applied, guided and equitable learning programs, with measurable impact. Because we believe the world needs a better way to match its potential.
We work with over 1,500 leading companies including the likes of Microsoft, Citi and Just Eat to help solve their business-critical problems, and we’ve trained over 16,000 professional apprentices in the tech and data skills of the future. This is made possible by our global team who are driven to achieve a mission that matters, together.
Join Multiverse and help us set a new course for work.

What We Do
The working world has changed, but learning hasn’t...
Today: Future-focused jobs are the fastest way to economic opportunity, but the current transition from education to work is both inefficient and unfair. Tech and AI has radically transformed how we work, creating the need for a new set of skills in the workplace.
Who are we? Multiverse is a new tech-first institution that combines work and learning to deliver equitable access to economic opportunity for everyone. We close the critical skill gaps through a new kind of apprenticeship, harnessing the best of human-centred coaching, AI and tech to deliver an approach to learning that’s measured, applied, guided and equitable.
Our goal: Embed fairness at the heart of the workforce model and break the expensive barrier between education and employment that’s holding people and companies back. We’re transforming a workforce that’s qualified in theory to a multi-dimensional workforce that’s qualified in practice.
Multiverse is setting a new course for work, both for those looking to enter the workforce and those already in it.
Why Work With Us
We're fundamentally changing a broken education system and building a better one. You'll be empowered by those around you - we’re a team that thrives on each other's different experiences, skills and ideas. And you'll never stop growing, we're moving fast towards great things and we want you on the journey with us.
