You will also help organise events, support training sessions, and promote employer engagement in careers education.
These roles will be to support schools, colleges, employers and other organisations across East Norfolk and Suffolk. There will also be operational activity across Norfolk and Suffolk; therefore, access to a vehicle and a full UK driving licence are essential.
