Following the success of our first Careers Jam in 2021 which supported over 1,600 students in discovering and developing their employability skills, we are excited to be holding the event again in 2022. Our mission is to help young people to prepare for their future careers, and help to narrow the skills gap.

The day will include a variety of panel discussions and workshops where industry leaders and young professionals will share their experience, advice and tips on a range of issues relevant to young people aged between 16-24. Young people will be able to engage in discussions about a variety of topics, such as digital careers, sustainability, financial awareness and entrepreneurship.
