Youth Employment Week is an annual week-long celebration of youth employment opportunities for young people aged 11-30. Its inaugural launch is on 3rd July 2023.
The theme for Youth Employment Week 2023 is OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL
We are proud to present an annual event commencing 3 – 7 July 2023. Youth Employment Week is a celebration of all things youth employment! Together, educators, employers and organisations are connecting young people to opportunities and support, and raising awareness of the benefits of hiring young people from all backgrounds.
“Supporting young people from all backgrounds to access suitable job opportunities to boost their experience, skills and confidence is vital – both for individuals and employers whose organisations are so enriched through these links.
“It’s why I am really pleased to support Youth Employment Week 2023, a great moment to shine a light on our brilliant young people and focus on the inclusive, youth-friendly opportunities that make such a difference to young people’s lives.“
