Flexible work recruitment fair comes to Manchester

Flexible work recruitment fair comes to Manchester

Plans are being made for flexible work recruitment fair to be held in Manchester in May.

Local employers offering part-time work, businesses sharing opportunities for self-employment, franchisors, training companies, colleges, professional business advisors and networking groups will be represented at the event.

The fair will be held in the heart of the city at the Renaissance Manchester City Hotel, Blackfriars Street, on Saturday, May 19, from 10.30am to 4pm.

Following successful shows in Sussex and Essex organiser Karyn Slyfield, director of Working Jobs from Home, aims to bring under one roof people offering job opportunities or advice and those seeking flexible work or hoping to start their own businesses.

Karyn’s website at www.workingjobsfromhome.co.uk attracts about 2000 visitors a day who are interested in ideas for flexible working but she is keen to bring job seekers and providers together at the fair.

 “This is an opportunity for them to meet face to face and learn more about each other in an informal and friendly atmosphere.

“The fair could appeal particularly to stay at home parents, students, graduates, people wanting to supplement their pensions, those facing redundancy and others looking to boost their income or start their own business.”

Karyn said: “ There is a real interest in this show, as we can see that from visitors already pre-registering to attend. There will be exciting free CV workshops and Start up biz seminars sessions, running throughout the day”

Entry to the fair will be free. About 30 flexible work employers are attending and there will be free seminars and workshops too. Goodie bags will be available for the first 150 job seekers to arrive at the event.

350 attend Harlow Recruitment Fair!

More than 350 people attended a flexible working recruitment fair in Harlow last week and organiser Karyn Slyfield was delighted with the way it went. 

Harlow Council chairman Cllr Mike Garnett cut a ribbon during the opening ceremony at the Park Inn Hotel and chatted with stallholders afterwards.

He can be seen in our picture with members of the Butcher family from Ramsden Heath who were manning the Smallprint stall.

Mother-of-four Sue Butcher has been running the Smallprint business for several years but is now selling up. Her daughters joined her at the fair to tell people more about the fine silverware produced with the aim of capturing children's finger prints, hand or foot prints or even little messages.

Essex Jobcentre Plus was also one of the exhibitors and there were free start-up business seminars and free workshops to help visitors brush up on their CVs.

Fair organiser Karyn Slyfield of Working Jobs from Home said the feedback from stallholders and visitors was great and she was pleased to have been able to bring together people looking for work and those offering it.

A variety of flexible work opportunities can be found all year round on Karyn's website at www.workingjobsfromhome.co.uk.
