Cue Podcasts and Brook Street (part of the Manpower Group) are excited to announce the launch of the PeopleFirst podcast. Designed to empower Gen Z and Millennial workers, episodes offer candid advice and practical tips on navigating the complexities of early career life.

Hosted by Jordan Spry (Recruitment Marketing Manager at Brook Street), PeopleFirst tackles a range of topics relevant to young professionals - including asking for a pay rise, managing finances, post-university options, and work-life balance. The podcast features frank and open discussions designed to empower listeners and provide practical guidance.

Available on all major listening platforms now, new episodes are set to be released fortnightly. Listen to the first episode here.

PeopleFirst is produced in partnership with Cue Podcasts, a UK-based production company specialising in branded podcasts. The team at Cue have previously produced shows for SailGP, Azets, West Midlands Trains, the Centre for Public Impact, Roc Nation, Samsung, Halifax, and more.

Becky Edwards, Head of Content at Brook Street, said:

Our mission with the PeopleFirst podcast was to create a fresh and insightful content series designed to address the real-life challenges young professionals face as they enter the workforce. Through candid conversations with inspiring guests, each episode delves into issues such as overcoming imposter syndrome, achieving work-life balance, negotiating pay rises, and understanding neurodivergence in the workplace. PeopleFirst offers practical advice and genuine support for young professionals and I’m thrilled to share it with our listeners!
