Burton Market Hall to Host Jobs Fair

East Staffordshire Borough Council is pleased to announce that a Jobs Fair will be held at Burton Market Hall on Friday 7th June between 9:30am - 12:30pm.

The fair is delivered in partnership between East Staffordshire Borough Council, Job Centre Plus, Burton and South Derbyshire College, Trent and Dove Housing, Support Staffordshire and Burton and District Chamber of Commerce. 

Previous jobs fairs have gone from strength to strength.

If you are looking for staff then this is a fantastic prospect, by having a FREE stand and spending just a couple of hours attending the event, you can quickly make contact with a number of job seekers.

Employers offering vacancies include East Midlands Airport, University Hospitals of Derby and Burton NHS Foundation Trust, Bet Fred, Randstad recruiting for Kerry Foods, Gi Group and Wincanton.

The day is open to people across East Staffordshire and beyond looking for work or a change of career and promises to be a successful event, full of employers and jobseekers alike from across the area.  A range of employers are already signed up to attend with some exciting job opportunities on offer.  As a job seeker, you don’t need to do anything today; simply drop in with some CVs and see if there is anything on offer for you. 

Comments from job seekers at previous events include:

“I have an interview at 9.30am tomorrow; I’m very pleased!”

“Excellent! Had some very good advice, some courses sounded great!”

“It was a very good jobs fair with loads of opportunities. Fantastic - well done!”

Councillor George Allen, Deputy Leader for Regeneration and Planning Policy said: “If you are looking for staff then this is a fantastic prospect, by having a FREE stand and spending just a couple of hours in the morning on Friday 7th June at Burton Market Hall, you can quickly make contact with a number of job seekers.

“The job fair is expected to be well attended by jobseekers with plenty of opportunities for businesses that will be able to bypass the long process of advertising positions and sorting through CVs, instead getting straight to potential candidates for their open positions”.
