Help Someone Start

JobJourney3longThis page is aimed at managers who can help someone start out on their journey towards getting a job.

The Suffolk Story is very clear about the council’s commitment to transforming learning and skills and developing a strong and dynamic jobs market in Suffolk.  Offering a chance to a young person or an adult who is out of work is a great way for you to deliver on that commitment.

More important, though, are the benefits that you and your team will get by helping someone along their journey towards a job. These include:
Financial benefits such as reduced recruitment and training costs, improved retention and increased productivity
"Feel good" benefits such as improved team morale, fresh ideas and perspectives and the satisfaction of helping someone develop confidence and skills.
It won’t always be easy, but academic studies and our own managers confirm that the rewards are worth the effort. So start now by helping someone along their journey towards a job.
