Introducing Careers in Leeds – a brand-new careers, jobs, and training fair 👋
Taking place on Tuesday 3 November at First Direct Arena, Careers in Leeds will bring together three previous Employment and Skills Leeds events; Leeds Digital Careers Fair, Leeds Creative Skills Festival, and SEND Next Choices to create a new flagship event for the city.
Attendees can expect to discover opportunities in a range of industries from across the city, with the fair to be divided into designated zones including Construction, Manufacturing and Engineering, Health and Social Care, Early Years and Education, Public Services, Digital, Finance and Professional Services, Hospitality, Wholesale and Retail, and Creative and Culture.
Additionally, a dedicated ‘Support Zone’ will host organisations offering tailored opportunities for individuals with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND), and a scheduled relaxed period will allow attendees with additional needs to explore the fair in a calm environment.
The SEND Next Choices programme will also expand to offer year-round support for young people with SEND, creating employment pathways through employer interactions, youth engagement, and career advice to increase job opportunities in the city.
