Residents across Rushcliffe, Broxtowe, and Gedling looking for a career change or to learn new skills can explore employment and training opportunities in their area on a brand-new, free-to-access website.
The Start in South Nottinghamshire Employment and Skills Portal is supported by the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF) and is jointly commissioned by Rushcliffe Borough Council, Broxtowe Borough Council, and Gedling Borough Council.
It has been set up to provide residents with a ‘go-to’ destination to support their journey into education or employment. Residents can visit the portal at https://southnotts.startprofile.com.
There are also free CV and cover letter builder tools to help job seekers increase their chances of gaining employment, virtual work experience programmes, information on local economies and employers, and a job search tool.
The platform also offers an opportunity for local employers and training providers to upload and list their learning and work opportunities for free.
Any businesses or organisations interested in including their information on the website can email their local authority:
- Rushcliffe Borough Council at bryder@rushcliffe.gov.uk
- Gedling Borough Council at ecdev@gedling.gov.uk
- Broxtowe Borough Council at economic.development@broxtowe.gov.uk
