Recruitment support for businesses

We know that having a job can greatly improve someone’s life and also benefit the wider community. 

That’s why we’re inviting employers to partner with us in this inspiring programme. Together, we can make a real difference to local residents and workplaces. 

West Sussex County Council and Brighton & Hove City Council run the Connect to Work programme locally, with support from the Department for Work and Pensions. 

How we support your business

Our specialist advisors work directly with you to understand your recruitment needs and find candidates who are keen to join your organisation 

We provide support and training to help you meet your social responsibility goals, improve diversity and inclusion and deliver on your social value commitments. 

Our expert guidance helps your business feel confident about hiring and supporting people with disabilities or other complex challenges, building a more inclusive and capable workforce. 

We continue to support both your business and your new employees after hiring, helping with onboarding, improving retention and reducing staff turnover. 

We also promote your organisation as a Connect to Work partner, positioning you as a leader in inclusive employment across the West Sussex business community.
