Events Recap | 02/09/2024

As we enter September, The UK Careers Fair is in the midst of an exciting and bustling season. Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting several successful career fairs across the country, offering invaluable opportunities for both job seekers and employers to connect.

A Week of Milestones and Incredible Employer Participation

The week kicked off on the 28th of August with events at two iconic venues: Deepdale Stadium in Preston and The Stadium of Light in Sunderland. Following these, we held fairs at The Brick Community Stadium in Wigan and Riverside Stadium in Middlesbrough on the 29th of August.

The week concluded with a significant milestone for us—hosting four career fairs in a single day on the 30th of August, a first us.

These events took place at G Live in Guildford, Crown & Mitre in Carlisle, Shrewsbury Town FC's Croud Meadow, and the Doubletree by Hilton in Hull.

This remarkable achievement wouldn't have been possible without the support of the numerous employers who participated. We are grateful to the many companies that made these events successful, including:

• Cavity Dental Training Ltd
• Utility Warehouse
• Major Recruitment
• North East Ambulance Service NHS
• Avon
• Lidl GB
• Humberside Police
• Reed in Partnership
• Home Office

• British Army
• Specsavers
• Stagecoach Performing Arts
• The Royal College of Podiatry
• University of Central Lancashire
• Hull City Council
• Springfield Healthcare
• Right at Home Guildford
• East Yorkshire Buses

These employers, along with many others, brought a wealth of opportunities across various sectors, from healthcare and education to retail and public service, ensuring that job seekers had access to diverse and promising career paths.

What’s Next?

Looking ahead, we are thrilled to continue this momentum with another week of events. On the 4th of September, we will be in Bradford at The Great Victoria Hotel, Torquay at The Grand Hotel, and Colchester at Jobserve Stadium. The following day, the 5th of September, we’ll host fairs at Priestfield Stadium in Gillingham and Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton. The week will wrap up on the 6th of September with events in Belfast at the Assembly Buildings and Northampton at Northampton Guildhall.

These upcoming fairs promise to be just as vibrant and diverse as last week's, with a host of fantastic companies ready to meet the next wave of talent. Employers like you play a crucial role in the success of these events, and we invite you to join us in making a meaningful impact.
