Working Denbighshire’s September Jobs Fair brings new opportunities for residents

Denbighshire residents looking for work, a fresh start, or a new direction in their careers are invited to attend the Working Denbighshire Jobs Fair at Queen's Market, Rhyl, on Wednesday 30 September from 10am to 2pm.

Delivered in partnership with Jobcentre Plus, the free event will bring together a wide range of employers from across North Wales who are actively recruiting for vacancies in sectors including health and social care, hospitality, retail, manufacturing, public services, logistics and many more.

The Jobs Fair has become a key event in Denbighshire's employment calendar, helping hundreds of residents connect directly with employers while accessing the wider support available through Working Denbighshire.

More than just a recruitment event, the Jobs Fair provides an opportunity for attendees to speak with the Working Denbighshire team, who offer personalised guidance and support.  Residents are encouraged to talk to a member of the team on the day to explore the opportunities available to them.  The team can help Denbighshire residents access training funds, build confidence, overcome barriers to employment, and gain the support they need to move closer to securing a job.  By taking the time to understand each individual's skills, interests and aspirations, the team can also introduce them to employers and opportunities that match what they are looking for, helping to build confidence and remove the fear of taking that next step into employment.

Over the years, Working Denbighshire's Jobs Fairs have welcomed thousands of visitors and supported hundreds of people to engage with employment services, with many attendees going on to secure jobs, training opportunities, qualifications and long-term support through the programme.

Whether someone is searching for their first job, returning to work after a break, considering a career change, looking for training opportunities, work experience or simply exploring what's possible, the event aims to open doors and create opportunities for people at every stage of their employment journey.

Melanie Evans, Service Manager, Strategic Employment, said:

"We know that finding employment isn't always straightforward, and for some people the hardest part is knowing where to start. That's why Working Denbighshire is proud to organise this Jobs Fair. Time and again, we've seen the difference these events can make, with residents securing jobs, accessing training opportunities, gaining qualifications and, in some cases, transforming their lives. By taking the time to understand each person's individual circumstances, skills and aspirations, the team can help residents identify opportunities that match what they are looking for, introduce them to employers and provide the support needed to build confidence and take that important next step towards employment."

The event is free to attend and open to everyone, including jobseekers, young people considering their future careers, those looking to return to work, and anyone seeking training, skills development or employment support.
