A Liverpool-based temporary staff booking platform is to create 250 jobs for young people across the º£½ÇÊÓÆµ as part of the Government's Kickstart scheme.

Redwigwam said the entry-level jobs will provide successful candidates with the chance to gain work experience during a six-month placement.

People aged 16-24 and on Universal Credit can apply for the paid roles in the £2bn programme which guarantees workers 25 hours per week.

Some of the roles require candidates to go into the workplace, while other roles are fully remote and will be working from home.

The job opportunities, available across the country, include brand ambassadors, administrators, customer service, digital marketing executives, graphic designers, receptionists, social media executives and field sales executives.

There are also job roles for e-commerce product assistants, JavaScript developers, nutritionists, supply chain assistants and even a pastry chef.

Lorna Davidson, founder and CEO of Liverpool-based redwigwam, said: “We’re delighted to be working in partnership with the Government to create 6-month-long job placements for people aged 16-24 on Universal Credit.

“These entry-level roles are specially designed for those who are struggling to find employment and want the chance to learn from scratch. It will give hundreds of young people the chance to learn new skills which they can take forward as they start their career.

“All are welcome to apply, no matter what their level of education or work experience, and they will all get paid for the duration of their placement.”
