Help with finding a career

The right job can make all the difference when it comes to making ends meet. To help you find local employment options, Westminster Employment Service (WES) is a recruitment service that helps residents as you connect with local businesses to find work opportunities on your doorstep. Find out more on the Westminster Employment Service website.

The government also has a dedicated webpage where you can search for job vacancies in your area. This function can also identify employers that have signed up for the Disability Confident scheme.

If you’re looking for work options beyond your local area, the government’s National Careers Service (NCS) provides free and impartial information and guidance to help you discover career options open to you and enables you to choose from over 800 career profiles to find out what different types of jobs involve. NCS can also point you towards training courses that provide the necessary qualifications and has a handy skills assessment tool to help you see what talents you already possess that employers might be looking for. Find more information on the National Careers Advice service website.
