The Mentoring Programme
Investor relations is a career built on insight, confidence and continual growth. The Society’s Mentoring Programme, delivered in partnership with
Anna Hartropp Ltd., connects aspiring and experienced IR professionals with those who can offer guidance, perspective and practical support.
Whether you’re looking to build new skills, plan your next career step or simply gain clarity from someone who has been there before, this programme provides a trusted space for meaningful professional development.
Applications for the IR Society’s 2026 Mentoring Programme have now closed.
If you have any questions or would be interested in taking part in a future mentoring programme, either as a mentor or a mentee, please contact mentoring@irsociety.org.uk.
Taking part in the IR Society’s mentoring programme was a hugely valuable experience. It gave me the opportunity to broaden my professional network beyond my own industry and gain insight into how other organisations approach investor relations. Having an experienced, independent sounding board was incredibly helpful for discussing challenges and sharing perspectives on what ‘good IR’ looks like in practice.
