What we can help with

If you're an employer in Jersey and you need free support to fill a vacancy, email Back to Work. We match locally qualified job seekers to your needs in a way that suits you.

  • job match events
  • shortlisting, interviewin​g and feedback
  • tailored industry or company-specific recruitment campaigns
  • financial incentives to support training needs

How it works

Our recruitment officers work with you to fulfil your recruitment needs.

We can help you to fill one vacancy or we can help you to fill many vacancies within your company. Tell us how to help you and we will do all we can to meet your requirements.

The Recruitment team will send you suitable CVs within two working days. We will only send you candidates who have met one or more of our recruitment officers and who are 'Entitled to Work' or 'Entitled'.

We have a range of financial incentives available to employers when filling a vacant position with a job seeker registered as seeking work with us.

If you need financial support to recruit permanent staff, visit Employment Incentive.

Work placements

Our employment schemes, which consist of industry led training and a work placement, enable candidates to gain invaluable experience in a wide range of employment sectors.

As an employer the benefits of offering a placement include:

  • the opportunity to ‘trial’ a possible future employee without the costs of advertising and recruitment
  • additional help and support for your business
  • the chance to give something back to the community and help the local employment market
  • the provision of invaluable skills and work experience to a placement candidate

Although no employer is obliged to offer a job, many candidates are offered employment directly from their placement.

Your Back to Work recruitment officer will tell you which scheme will best suit your needs.
