If you’re aged 16 to 24 and unemployed, a Kickstart placement may be for YOU.

Kickstart can help you to develop the skills and experience you need to find work, through valuable six-month jobs.  Our jobs have been vetted and all employers we work with are committed to giving you that first chance you need to get going in work.

To apply you need to be 16- to 24-year-old on Universal Credit with nil earnings when you apply (you can turn 25 within the six-month placement). 

You must apply via your JCP Work Coach first. They will inform you how to progress your application.  For all jobs we are promoting you will need to send a CV to teamtlc@transform-lives.org  AND remember you must be referred by your Work Coach, this generates a unique ID number for you to demonstrates to us that you are eligible to apply.  Direct CV’s without a matching referral number from the Job Centre cannot be considered
