Kickstart Scheme

Have you heard about the new Kickstart Scheme?

It’s a government-funded work placement programme for young people aged 16 to 24 who receive Universal Credit.

We’ve been accepted as a Kickstart Scheme employer through the NYBEP (North Yorkshire Business and Education Partnership Ltd) gateway. NYBEP support the young person with wrap around employability support throughout the placement, and support employers through the process.

We will soon be looking to recruit:

Placements are for 6 months, 25 hours a week and the pay is National Minimum Wage.

If you know someone who would like to apply, please direct them through Jobcentre Plus.  We will interview candidates online or over the phone first, then second interviews will be held at our premises in York.
