The Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme, otherwise known as furlough, is due to be phased out by September 2021. For some, this date marks a return to normal working life, but for others, it brings the possibility of unemployment.
Currently, not all businesses are operating at full capacity, so many won’t be able to bring back their entire workforce. If you’re worried this might be your employer, we understand why you may feel a little pessimistic.
Fortunately, we have a range of roles across many sectors, and plenty of them could be perfect for your skill set. That’s why we’re encouraging all those on furlough to register with us and see firsthand how we can help you settle back into the job market.
Start earning again
Anyone who’s been on furlough for a while is probably used to receiving a reduced wage. But when you jump into our talent pool, you’ll be offered some of the best-paid roles in temporary work.
Not only will the extra cash afford you the lifestyle you were used to pre-pandemic, you’ll also be able to enjoy the re-opening this summer, and make the most of the upcoming music festivals, club nights and holidays. Depending on the position you choose, there’s even a chance you could earn more than your previous job, or at the very least enjoy greater opportunities for progression.
Gain experience across sectors
Speaking of progression, working with us doesn’t necessarily mean a return to your previous industry. We recognise essential skills and can pair them with other sectors where you exceed all expectations – including your own.
From hospitality and bar staff to IT experts, we cover a whole host of markets and offer our members the opportunity to work in them all. Deliver a strong performance and you’ll be able to progress through your preferred industry and change the course of your career for good.
Transition to permanent employment
For some, moving straight into a new full-time job is daunting. Not only do you have to learn all the processes and procedures, you also have to spend time being trained up. And even then, there’s a risk that you could be let go again.
In a temp-to-perm role, you can develop your abilities and transition into a more secure, senior position at a business of your choice. What’s more, you’ll be able to build contacts within your chosen field and potentially work for a company that you’re already invested in.
