What to expect
For some, navigating the jobs market can be difficult, especially under challenging personal circumstances.
Join our team where you can assist in playing a pivotal role in supporting individuals who have been out of work due to health conditions, childcare responsibilities, or other reasons, in accessing employment opportunities and the necessary skills to re-enter the workforce. People who have been absent from the workforce for any period of time can often lack the confidence and skills needed to get back into work. Whatever their circumstances, our teams find ways to make employment work for them.
Our employment and skills support teams can provide guidance tailored to the specific needs of the individual, offering resources such as CV building, interview preparation, and career counselling. Additionally, we can help find jobs that offer flexible work arrangements to accommodate the unique needs of the individuals we work with, making it easier for them to transition back into employment.
Collaborating with businesses, government and learning providers, we can facilitate training programmes and workshops aimed at upskilling and reskilling those who need it.
