Employers

At SACC, we know that employers are the backbone of our community — driving the economy, creating career opportunities, and shaping the future of our region. That’s why we’re proud to work closely with local businesses in a variety of ways, from supporting workforce development to creating valuable experiences for our learners.

As a smaller, more agile college, we understand the unique challenges faced by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). We’re here to build meaningful partnerships that benefit both your business and our learners — helping to shape the next generation of skilled, work-ready individuals.

How We Work With Employers

Work Experience Placements

Real-world experience is essential for learners. We’re always looking for employers who can offer meaningful work experience opportunities to our young adults on vocational courses. Your support helps them build confidence, develop practical skills, and prepare for life after college.

If you are an employer and may be able to offer a work experience placement for a learner, please contact SACC@southend-adult.ac.uk.

Job Fairs, Industry Talks & Business Visits

Join us at one of our regular job fairs or connect with learners through industry talks. Or, why not open your doors for a workplace tour? These interactions help learners understand the world of work and discover new career paths. Get involved
