Salford City Council awarded a contract to The Growth Company for the delivery of an integrated information, advice and guidance service for adults and employer brokerage support for young people and adults.

The service provides targeted employability support to Salford residents, helping them progress and connect to quality employment and training opportunities.

It also engages with businesses to develop skills and employment opportunities, encouraging innovative recruitment practices that consider residents with barriers to employment.

The contract integrates and extends the scope of two previously separate services—Salford Health Works for adults with complex needs and Salford Employ for employer brokerage—into one contract.

The contract value is £1,395,000.
