The event, which is free to attend, will take place at Bob Jones Community Hub on Wednesday, 11 June, and is open to anyone looking for a job in the Black Country.
Local employers with live vacancies from across the Black Country and Birmingham will be on hand to chat to people looking for a role and to give advice on applications.
Employers from a variety of industries and sectors will be taking part, including West Midlands Police, West Midlands Fire Service, KFC, DPD and Wolverhampton Homes to name a few.
The Individual Placement and Support (IPS) and Retention team at BCHFT provides support to individuals across the Black Country who aim to enter some form of paid employment or wish to change their job to better suit their needs.
The service is available to people who are open to secondary mental health services in the Black Country and the team is made up of vocational specialists who provide one to one support to help people achieve their goals. Vocational specialists can help clients identify jobs they want, search and apply for jobs and support individuals in their place of work.
The team regularly hold job fairs for Black Country job seekers, with their previous event in Wolverhampton seeing over 240 people attend as well as showcasing over 30 organisations who had open and local vacancies.
