Winchester City Council is inviting employers and those seeking new careers to its Jobs and Opportunities Fair.

The event will take place at the Winchester Sport and Leisure Park on February 24, from 10am to 1pm.

It is run in partnership with Winchester Job Centre and will support employers across a range of sectors with filling vacancies.

Organisations will be able to meet with local residents looking for new employment – whether it’s people wanting a change of career, individuals returning to work after a break, or people looking to advance their employment situations.

Additionally, employers will have the chance to reach out to those who have recently settled in the Winchester district, including Ukrainian guests - and the Winchester Job Centre will also be on hand to connect job seekers with new career opportunities.

Cabinet member for business and culture Cllr Lucille Thompson said: “Our Jobs and Opportunities Fair with Winchester Job Centre this February is a brilliant opportunity for employers in Winchester to connect with local job seekers – I’d encourage any organisations looking to fill vacancies to come along. 

“Events like these reflect our commitment to supporting a vibrant economy and we are very proud to have such a range of organisations across our district.”
