Youth Employment UK Creates New Interactive Opportunity Finder For Young Job Seekers

At the beginning of 2024, Youth Employment UK unveiled a new interactive Opportunity Finder designed to help young people and jobs, training and events in the UK.

The 2023 Youth Voice Census report saw an decrease in young people finding jobs locally, with 42.5% of respondents stating they weren’t confident they could and quality opportunities in their local area.

That’s why we upgraded our Opportunity Finder - to connect young people with jobs from youth friendly employers who put them at the heart of everything they do.

This new tool allows you to search for opportunities by type of job/training, industry and location, with a new map view feature that makes it easier to see jobs near them. It showcases a range of opportunities, including:

Job vacancies:

• Training (e.g. traineeships, apprenticeships, internships)
• Work experience and volunteering
• Graduate schemes
• Careers events
• Workshops
• Mentoring

With employers like the Royal Air Force, Coca Cola Europacic Partners, and Haven sharing their vacancies, this Opportunity Finder is a valuable resource for any young job seeker looking to kickstart or grow their career.
