Full Circle Futures
Creating Lasting Social Value Through Recruitment
Full Circle Futures is Sphere Solutions' social value framework, designed to deliver measurable community impact through recruitment.
By combining workforce delivery with targeted social value initiatives, we help contractors, developers and public sector organisations meet their social value commitments while creating meaningful opportunities for individuals and communities.
Whether it's supporting local employment, developing future talent or reinvesting into community initiatives, Full Circle Futures transforms recruitment into a catalyst for lasting positive change.

Why Full Circle Futures?
Today's construction projects are expected to deliver more than buildings.
Clients increasingly need to demonstrate meaningful social value, strengthen local employment, address skills shortages and leave a lasting legacy within the communities where they work.
Full Circle Futures provides a structured framework that helps achieve these objectives without creating additional complexity.
Rather than treating social value as a separate activity, we integrate it into our recruitment delivery, creating measurable outcomes that support both project performance and community benefit.
Our Approach
Recruitment That Creates Wider Impact
Our framework combines:
- Local employment opportunities
- Education and skills development
- Workforce progression
- Community engagement
- Ongoing pastoral support
- Transparent reporting
Where Sphere Solutions operates on an agreed site exclusivity basis, 5% of the margin generated from designated social value placements is ring-fenced into our Social Value Impact Fund.
This fund is reinvested into initiatives that create additional social value throughout the lifecycle of a project.
The Social Value Impact Fund
Unlike traditional approaches, Full Circle Futures creates additional value from successful recruitment delivery.
Under agreed site exclusivity arrangements:
- 5% of margin from designated social value placements is ring-fenced
- The fund supports local community initiatives
- Investment helps strengthen local and regional workforce development
- Funding supports training, employability and progression
- Every investment is aligned to project objectives and client priorities
The Social Value Impact Fund is not a rebate or discount mechanism. It is a protected reinvestment model designed to maximise the long-term impact of successful project delivery.
