About Stemettes

We’re Stemettes. An award-winning social enterprise working to engage, inform and connect the next generation of girls, young women and non-binary people into Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Maths (STEAM). We run a variety of programmes, workshops, and events that are designed to make STEAM accessible and relatable to young people who are typically underrepresented in these fields.

You’d be working within a fully hybrid organisation located across the UK, including freelancers and admins who ensure the smooth running of Stemettes interventions and outreach work.
