Company mission
To bridge the gap between education and employment - ensuring every student has the chance to gain experience, build confidence, and unlock career opportunities.
Our take
Students typically expect work experience and future job prospects from their university degrees. However, many university experiences fall short on this front, and many young people are opting out of a degree altogether, focusing instead on more sure-fire career-starting apprenticeships and trades. UniTaskr is filling the work experience gap by connecting university students with relevant opportunities
UniTaskr’s app connects students with employers and work opportunities that they can fit around their studies. The benefits are multipronged: students gain experience in their aspiring field and earn money whilst they’re at it, whilst employers gain affordable freelance and contract workers, meeting Corporate Social Responsibility objectives by investing in the next generation. Jobs on the UniTaskr platform are diverse and digital-first, with social media management, content creation and coding as key focal points
Leading companies like UberEats, Amazon and Red Bull leverage UniTaskr’s 350K-strong user base, and, to date, £5 million in jobs have been posted on the site. Indeed, UniTaskr has been so successful that it turned its own internal growth hack - a student-led viral marketing campaign that soared UniTaskr to number 1 in the App Store - into a content marketing and creator performance agency - The SHOUT Agency.
Leveraging UniTaskr's large network of student workers, the SHOUT Agency runs influencer marketing campaigns for corporate clients, feeding exciting job opportunities into UniTaskr as it does so. This smart marketing and job-creating ecosystem speaks to the resourcefulness of its founders and is proving to be a winning formula for the digital-first job market.
