“As outlined in our Plan for Good Jobs, a key priority for the council is to support residents into good well-paid jobs. 

“That’s why we are thrilled to bring you this jobs fair where you can meet and talk to employers in-person about their job vacancies in different sectors. 

“Don’t miss out the opportunity to also attend the free seminars – whether you are interested in finding out more about an apprenticeship, employers’ expectations or perhaps need a little more confidence in finding and keeping a job.”
