Local jobs for local people
North West City Jobs is a professional team, dedicated to helping job-ready people from the local community - people in areas like Handsworth, Lozells and Aston - into real, sustainable jobs.
Built on a successful model
The project was modelled on the award-winning Bullring 'employment hub' and, initially, was designed to deliver suitable residents into new jobs created by companies relocating to the old IMI headquarters. Over time, the numbers of vacancies will be significant and North West City Jobs has already identified incoming opportunities for companies that will require from 30 to 300 new employees each.
That's one end of the scale. We are also here to help existing small and medium sized businesses and new entrepreneurs, and that's where we have been proving our approach.
Practical and pragmatic
North West City Jobs works with local partners, especially by providing customised training opportunities in community settings. They are also engaging with key influential partners such as academic organisations who have been researching barriers to worklessness and unemployment. North West City Jobs can offer a practical, pragmatic link to help overcome the real-world problems.
