Our friendly Employment Advisers are experts at helping people into work.
Better Working Futures provides personal advice and guidance, skills training and health support – all to help you find the right job.
By working together, we will help you to achieve your potential.
Getting to know you
After being referred by the Jobcentre, you will meet your own personal Employment Adviser. They will talk to you about.
- Your interests
- Your skills
- Your ambitions
- Your experience
- Your health
- Your personal circumstances
The more information your Adviser has, the better support they can provide. Throughout your time on Better Working Futures we will reimburse your travel costs.
Making Your Plan
You and your Adviser will make a plan to help you start working. You will both create a personal plan and explore your best options, including self-employment opportunities.
Your plan will detail this and your Adviser will coordinate everything for you.
Managing your health and disability
We understand that some health conditions and disabilities can sometimes make it difficult to find and stay in work.
You can also speak with a health professional, such as a nurse, who can provide support with more complex conditions and free training courses to help you manage your health at work.
Personal development
Our training courses will help you to develop the rights skills for the job you want. Your Adviser will take you through all of our available courses and identify the best ones for you to take. These courses can be taken in our offices, and some are also available online.
