About
Opportunity Network
Connecting Camden residents with local employment, training and skills opportunities
Local Impact
Real Local Benefits
When new developments come to a borough, they bring real opportunities for local people - jobs, apprenticeships, training and community engagement.
Network is a Derwent London development at 10 Howland Street, Fitzrovia, fully pre-let to Databricks. The Opportunity Network is the single source of truth for end-use S106 employment and skills delivery here, coordinating apprenticeships, work placements, London Living Wage compliance, council referrals, and SME supply-chain engagement.
Derwent London is delivering Network. Local residents get first sight of jobs, apprenticeships and training placements created on the scheme, with on-the-ground support to apply.
Purpose
Our Mission
We believe local development should mean local jobs. Opportunity Platform exists because in boroughs like Southwark, where unemployment sits at 6.2 percent and climbing (Trust for London, April 2026), the jobs and apprenticeships created by new developments should land with the people whose streets are changing, not travel to outsiders with better networks.
We work borough by borough, pairing every listing with resident-facing support from local partners so Camden residents are first in line where they live.
