EEAST Community Recruitment Event

Ambulance line up blue sky

On Thursday 30th March we will be hosting an inclusive recruitment event at Anglia Ruskin University in Chelmsford, along with partners from other blue light services and NHS organisations. Everyone is welcome.

We are passionate about working with our communities, and growing our diverse talent, but we know that our workforce is currently under-represented by the community we serve.

We want to change this, but we need your help. We’re holding an inclusive recruitment event to get to know our communities a little better and would love for you to share the details with friends, families and your local community.

Gita Prasad, Director of Business and Partnerships, said: "We are excited to be leading this event and to be taking active steps to make a difference to diversity and inclusion at EEAST. We want to reach out to the community as a key employer and welcome in people with different backgrounds and experiences to work with us. This is a partnership event and we are pleased to be joined by our integrated care systems and blue light partners."

It will be an opportunity for members of the local community to share their own experiences with us. We want to understand how we can better represent them, and we would also like to talk about the work we do and the fantastic opportunities we offer.

The event is open to anyone who is actively looking for work, or is just keen to find out more about the roles and career progression we have at EEAST and across the wider NHS and our partner organisations.

On the day we are offering:

  • A chance to share views, including any barriers people face when applying for jobs
  • An opportunity for discussion
  • Information about what to expect when applying for roles
  • Meet the recruiter sessions
  • Interview hints and tips
  • Information on different roles currently available in the area.
