Careers in Leeds
Tuesday 3 November 2026
Leeds First Direct Arena
This year marks the launch of a new, city-wide careers, jobs, and training fair, offering a refreshed approach to bringing opportunities and talent together across Leeds and the wider region.
For the first time, we are combining three major events into one ambitious, inclusive offer:
- Leeds Digital Careers Fair
- Leeds Creative Skills Festival
- SEND Next Choice Event
By bringing these events together, Careers in Leeds provides a single, flagship space where visitors can explore the breadth of opportunity across the city’s diverse sectors.
A sector-focused experience
The event will shine a spotlight on the wide variety of sectors represented across Leeds, helping visitors discover career paths they may never have considered. By bringing so many different worlds of work together under one roof, we will make it easy to explore what’s out there and find the opportunities that inspire.
Support zone
A dedicated support zone will offer tailored guidance and opportunities for individuals with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). A scheduled relaxed quiet period will create a calm, low‑sensory environment for visitors who may benefit from it, ensuring the event is inclusive, welcoming, and accessible for all.
