The jobs fair is taking place on Tuesday 15 October from 10am to 12noon at The Guildhall in Bore Street, Lichfield, WS13 6LU.

Lichfield District Council’s Cabinet Member for High Street and Economic Development, Councillor Richard Holland, said: “The jobs fair is a great way of bringing employers together with prospective employees.

“At next Tuesday’s event professionals will be on hand to give advice and up-to-date information about the vacancies within their organisations.

“If you are a jobseeker, come along on the day and see what’s on offer.”

A spokesperson for Lichfield Job Centre added: “The jobs fair brings together a wide selection of local employers from a variety of sectors with over 300 jobs on offer on the day. We would encourage anyone in the area who is looking for employment to attend – there’s no need to book a place, just come along.

“We are hoping to emulate the success of our last event which saw over 350 people attend in a two-hour period.

“There should be something for everyone and it’s a great way to meet local employers face to face. If you are looking for work do not miss out on this opportunity.”

The organisers wish to thank Martin Lahert of Bluebird Care for sponsoring refreshments for employers and partners at the event.
