Jobs from the Kickstart Scheme will be open to people 16-24 years old, who are claiming Universal Credit, and are at risk of long term unemployment. If you have a work coach they will talk to you about the Kickstart Scheme and whether it’s right for you. The first jobs should be available from November, so not long to wait.
Applications from employers are now underway, and we expect to have roles on offer in many different types of businesses, and across England, Scotland and Wales.
Talk to your work coach to find out more or visit the jobsite. If you don’t have a work coach, find out more about your career options.
