1

We believe in a personalised approach
Every job seeker has their own unique experience and ambitions. That’s why we offer tailored, one-to-one services. Matching you with one of our qualified advisers allows us to best serve you by getting to know your specific requirements better.

Working in the borough for the past 15 years, we know this approach works as we’ve successfully connected thousands of people with jobs, helping them realise their career goals.

2

Our services are available to everyone in the community
We believe that any Southwark resident who wants employment support is entitled to our advice and assistance. We work with local people from all age groups and backgrounds and cater to any level of work experience. Whether you’d like to find a new role, get back into the job market or progress in your career, our friendly team is here to help.

3

We are committed to equal opportunities.
Everyone in our community should be treated equally in all areas of life, including the workplace. We work with equal opportunities partners to ensure all employees and job applicants have the same chance of following their chosen career path.
