This yearโ€™s Annual Jobs Fairย at Macmillan ย was yet again an outstanding success, bringing together over 50 local employersย eager to showcase their businesses and the exciting career opportunities available to our students. The event was an invaluable opportunity for students, parents, and local businesses alike, creating connections and sparking potential future careers.

A Thriving Community of Opportunities
The event was held on an exciting evening filled with networking and exploration.ย  ย Local employers, from a wide range of industries, were on hand to share valuable insights into their businesses and to discuss job openings, apprenticeships, internships, and work experience opportunities. This year, we saw even more involvement from industries such as engineering, healthcare, finance, retail, and creative arts, reflecting the diverse career paths available to students.

A Range of Students Engaged: From Year 9 to Year 13
What made this yearโ€™s Jobs Fair particularly special was the wide range of students in attendance. The event was open to students from Year 9ย through to Year 13, offering everyone a chance to explore the possibilities ahead of them. Whether it was early-stage students looking to get a glimpse of future career options or Year 13 students securing their next steps after exams, the event had something for everyone.

It was heartening to see the enthusiasm fromย all year groups, with many students eager to speak with employers about potential opportunities. The involvement of familiesย was also evident, with many ย attending to learn about available career pathways for their children, showing just how important these events are in shaping the future of our students.

Creating Connections That Matter
Throughout the evening, we saw meaningful conversations unfold, with students gaining invaluable advice and direction from local businesses. Whether students were looking for part-time jobs, full-time roles, or long term career development, they had the opportunity to speak directly with employers who were genuinely interested in nurturing new talent.

The feedback from both employers and students has been overwhelmingly positive, and itโ€™s clear that this event is making a significant impact in helping our students bridge the gap between education and the world of work.
