Careers Connect

The talent gap is the industry's biggest constraint. Careers Connect addresses it head-on.

UK composites companies report difficulty filling 1 in 4 roles. Careers Connect is the ICS programme that brings employers, candidates, training providers and apprenticeship schemes into the same room — across two days of structured meet-ups, talks and a curated talent showcase.

For employers

Hire from a vetted talent pool.

Open roles get listed on the Careers Connect board ahead of the show. Candidates we've briefed and pre-screened attend with you-want-to-meet-them quality, not job-fair volume. Drop-in 1:1 slots run both days.

For candidates

Talk to people who do the hiring.

Engineers, technicians, R&D leads, plant managers, composites graduates — register your interest and we'll match you with the right employers before you arrive. Free for candidates.

For training providers

Showcase apprenticeships and courses.

Dedicated stand space, joint employer sessions, and access to attendee networking. Build pipeline directly with the companies who'll hire your graduates.

Get involved

Whether you're hiring, looking, or training the next generation — get on the Careers Connect list. We'll follow up with details closer to the event.
