Council Support for Young People's Careers

Councillor Paula Brookfield, Cabinet Member for Jobs, Skills and Opportunities, said: "Securing a brighter future for young people by getting them into good jobs and training is one of the key priorities for the city. Over the last year Wolves at Work has helped hundreds of jobseekers into work and placements. But we could not do it without collaboration with partners and employers – and this drop in event offers young people in Wolverhampton the chance to connect with real life opportunities."
