New Deal

New Deal is a Government programme that aims to offer personalised programmes of work and skills training to people who are unemployed.  New Deal also offers help and support with finding suitable work.

Everyone on New Deal gets a personal adviser who is their point of contact throughout the programme. The personal adviser takes the time to listen and understand so that they can help prepare an action plan specifically for the individual.

All programmes are accessible through Employment Services and whether you are looking for work or are a company with vacancies to offer, your first point of contact should be your local Job Centre.
