Jobs Fair helps Northumberland Residents

Our recent Jobs Fair welcomed over 100 attendees and brought together a fantastic mix of local employers, training providers and employment support organisations for a really positive community event.

Created to support those recently affected by the Merit closure, as well as the wider public, the day was all about connecting people with real, high-quality vacancies, training opportunities and practical advice.
The energy in the room and level of engagement showed just how committed we are, as a community, to helping local people take their next steps with confidence.

As one employer shared: “The level of engagement was great and we had a good level of candidates.”
