Young people and students across Oswestry are invited to take their next big step into the professional world at the upcoming Oswestry Careers Event, taking place on 27th November 2026, 3pm to 6pm at The Centre Spot (Oswestry Youth & Wellbeing Centre on Oak Street).
Designed to bridge the gap between education and employment, the event connects local students and young jobseekers directly with local employers and further education and apprenticeship providers.
“It’s an opportunity for young people to come along and chat with people from different professions to understand the career paths involved and what the job entails” said Gill Jones, Manager of The New Saints FC Foundation, that has organised the event.
Local recruitment firm, Beeline Personnel will also be attending the event to provide dedicated, hands-on support for the young people that attend. Experts from Beeline Personnel will offer practical guidance on CV writing and essential interview skills, helping attendees present their best possible selves to prospective employers.
Tom Leather, Operation and Business Manager of The New Saints FC Foundation explained “It’s a fantastic opportunity for young people to explore diverse career paths, discover local training opportunities, and gain the confidence needed to navigate today’s job market”.
The event will be attended by a range of local companies including financial planners & HR specialists, local artists sharing insights into creative careers and local charities, along with North Shropshire College and SBC Training offering advice on further education.
The event is free to attend, with attendees welcome to drop in at any time throughout the event. Booking is not essential but tickets can be secured at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/oswestry-careers-event-tickets-2003053099742.
