Millwall Community Trust in partnership with Job Centre Plus, Construction Skills Centre and Groundswell project will be hosting its 'Kick Into Employment' Job Fair at The Lions Centre on 24th July 2024 between 9:30am-4:00pm.
The Millwall Kick into Employment Job Fair offers candidates from all backgrounds, experience, and education levels the opportunity to speak to an abundance of local employers, Apprenticeship, traineeship, and training providers all in one place.
Jobseekers will be able to apply for jobs and get support with CV writing and application forms on the day, meet Employers face to face and even be interviewed on the day.
There will also be access to employment, career guidance, and finance and benefit advice via workshops and talks going on during the day. The aim of the event is to help support local job seekers into or back into employment or training as soon as possible.
There will be a wide variety of organisations and industry sectors attending, alongside a wide variety of exciting roles being advertised.
As well as a normal Job Fair, there will also be a reverse Job Fair where job seekers will have employers visit them and showcase their unique talents.
There will be also Millwall Community Trust demonstration programmes going on during day in the Astro including Walking Football.
John Scarborough, Millwall Community Trust’s Education & Employment Manager said: “Really looking forward to hosting our third cross industry sector job fair at the Lions Centre. With our lead partners JCP we are hopeful of making this the biggest one yet in Lewisham and Southwark and help bridge the unemployment gap in both boroughs and not provide employment but start sustainable careers.
"We are proud to gift this event freely to ensure employers including start ups are able attend and the community can access job and training opportunities but equally importantly information advice and guidance for the many wider barriers to employment and training they may be experience."
