The petition launched by Year 12s at Jersey College for Girls comes as part of their involvement in the 'Lean In' elective.  The group meets weekly to explore the barriers that still exist for women today, and to become more aware of how they can help shape a more respectful and inclusive society in Jersey and beyond.

Maven has helped several candidates relocate to Jersey for work.  Anjanette Diaz moved from the Philippines to Jersey in January 2022 as a Senior Fund Accountant.

There are a number of current trends in the island around skills shortages, the first of which is the lack of qualified administrators in all areas of fund and trust admin across the board.
