The Hull and East Yorkshire Careers Hub is part of the Government’s Careers Strategy implemented nationally to support secondary schools and colleges in implementing a ‘world class’ standard of careers guidance. The HEY LEP Careers Hub builds on the successes of the Humber Careers Hub previously. The change came about as a result of new LEP geography in April 2021.
The Careers & Enterprise Company (CEC) was established by Government in 2014 and working in partnership with Local Enterprise Partnerships (LEPs), across England, set up Careers Hubs to build and co-fund a national network of Enterprise Coordinators to improve careers education and help prepare young people for the world of work.
The Hull and East Yorkshire Careers Hub is currently engaged with 36 schools and colleges and have over 40 Enterprise Advisers, representing a range of sectors volunteering to support these schools and colleges. We operate in partnership with both Hull City Council and The East Riding of Yorkshire Council, the Humber Outreach Partnership and a number of other committed stakeholders.
The Hull and East Yorkshire Careers Hub team comprises of one Careers Hub Lead and two Enterprise Coordinators who are trained to work with school and college leadership teams to build careers and employer engagement plans. In addition, each school and college is supported by an Enterprise Adviser – a senior volunteer from business – who helps to develop a strategic careers plan and unlock relationships with other local businesses.
The Careers Hub can:
- help businesses work with schools to improve workplace skills
- raise awareness of businesses and labour market information with secondary schools and colleges
- provide high quality resources to improve careers provision
- support careers leaders in schools and colleges
