Employer Hub Kickstart Support

The Employer Hub, part of Coventry City Councils Employment & Skills Service is continuing our working relationship with the Department of Work & Pensions to offer FREE support to businesses with the delivery of newly launched Kickstart Scheme.

You can use the Kickstart Scheme to create new 6-month job placements for young people who are currently on Universal Credit and at risk of long-term unemployment. The job placements should support the participants to develop the skills and experience they need to find work after completing the scheme. And we can work as an intermediary to help from start to finish.
