High Peak MP Jon Pearce is bringing back his popular careers fair for a third year, and this time he's promising the biggest event yet.

The High Peak Careers, Skills & Jobs Fair takes place on Friday 20th March from 10am to 1pm at the Crescent Hotel in Buxton.

More than 40 employers will be there, covering everything from entry-level roles to senior positions across a range of industries.

Last year's fairs in Buxton and Glossop drew over 700 people and connected them with 95 employers - numbers Pearce is hoping to beat this time around.

"The energy at our previous fairs has been absolutely electric," he said. "Seeing people of all ages finding new opportunities and building confidence in their futures is exactly why I do this work."

Previous employers have included Buxton Lime, Severn Trent, Nestlé Waters, Derbyshire Police, High Peak Borough Council, Derbyshire NHS, Chatsworth House, and the British Army. This year's lineup promises to be just as varied.

Beyond job openings, the fair will showcase apprenticeships, training programmes, and skills workshops designed to help people at any stage of their career.

In a thoughtful touch, the event will run a dedicated Neurodiverse Hour from 10 -11am to ensure everyone feels welcome and supported.

"Whether you're 16 or 60, looking for your first job or your next career move, there's something here for you," Pearce added.

Entry is free. More details are available at:
