Bracknell BID and The Lexicon unite for third annual Bracknell Jobs Fair

Bracknell job seekers and businesses looking to recruit are invited to meet once again to make an impact on local recruitment.

Bracknell Business Improvement District (BID) and The Lexicon are thrilled to announce their continued partnership for a third consecutive year to host Bracknell Jobs Fair 2024. With the main aim of the collaboration to provide an open space for businesses to connect with their local talent pool.

The Jobs Fair 2024 will feature a wide array of companies from different sectors including automotive, education, print, technology, healthcare, retail and hospitality industries. Prospective employees will come face to face with their potential recruiters as local businesses get ready to showcase their vacancies at the event, scheduled to take place on Thursday, 5th September, from 10:00am to 3:00pm in Princess Square Shopping Centre, The Lexicon.

Sean Griffin, Bracknell BID Manager, said:
“The Jobs Fair has been a great success every year since it began in 2022, and we are just excited to do it all over again, making an even bigger impact this year. We are grateful to The Lexicon for once again providing the perfect location for businesses to connect with their local community and to careers charity CXK, the National Careers Service, Bracknell Forest Council and DWP who continue to support the Bracknell Jobs Fair.  

This event has something for everyone, from school leavers and graduates through to those more experienced in their profession. We are keen to hear from and support any BID businesses seeking to improve staff recruitment, training, and skills. We would encourage Bracknell town residents and companies to make this the best year yet and seize this chance to promote themselves.”

There will also be opportunities for networking, career advice, and information on training programs available in the area. Attendees will benefit from guidance from National Careers Service and CXK to help build their confidence, interview skills, and gain CV advice. The Lexicon will have a CV concierge desk to drop off CVs again this year, representing local retailers and restaurants.
