Help with getting a job

I'm looking for a job, what help is available?

Our employment education and skills team can offer all sorts of advice and support to help you get back into work. Whether you're 18 or 58, our team work closely with local employers to match your skills and experience to jobs available. On most of our programmes you'll come along to an initial meeting with us so that you can get the help that you need. 

Depending on your circumstances you might be eligible for one or some of the programmes that we deliver - see below.

Current funded programmes that we deliver include:

• Careers advice - available to all adults over the age of 18 in England - in work, or out of work.
