Your Job Journey Starts Here

JobJourney3longSuffolk County Council is the largest local employer in Suffolk. We are doing a lot to support people into jobs. This includes:

• Work experience for people who want to find
  out what the world of work is about.

• Guidance and work trials for people who have
  been out of work for a long time or are
  disadvantaged in getting jobs.
 
• Apprenticeships and graduate trainee programmes
  where, as an employee, you can earn as you learn
  and you gain practical skills from the workplace.

• Internships for people on courses who want to
  build up work experience, contacts and their CV.

We work closely with other organisations to offer this support. They include Jobcentre Plus, Future Jobs Fund, National Apprenticeship Service and many local public services, private businesses and voluntary organisations. This work is mostly organised under two partnerships: Backing Young Suffolk and the Local Employment Partnership.

It may be difficult to work out how our support can work for you.  We have created the Job Journey which we hope will help you in that. To start your journey, click on one of the links below
