The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) have launched a £2 billion Kickstart Scheme which will put young people at the heart of the economic recovery. It's an “innovative way to help young people into work and spur Britain’s economic revival” while opening doors to ensure UK businesses bounce back stronger.
Due to administration capacity, the minimum number of Kickstart placement opportunities per direct application is 30 but, for businesses that wish to offer less than 30 job placements gateway organisations are approved to step in and support.
LCG are an approved Gateway Organisation and can support you with your placements – whether you have 1 opportunity or more than 30.
