The Volvo Group to showcase range of roles as headline exhibitor at Coventry Jobs Fair

One of the world’s largest automotive brands will be showcasing its diverse range of career opportunities at a jobs fair in Coventry.

The Volvo Group will occupy a stand at Coventry Jobs Fair taking place at Coventry Building Society Arena from 10am to 1pm on Friday, July 17.

The manufacturer’s recruitment team will highlight some of the vacancies Volvo currently has across many of its business areas, including finance, marine, truck and bus.

A host of other national and regional employers, including Domestic & General, Coventry University, The Army and ACR Recruitment, will use the Fair to advertise around 300 roles - from entry level to senior management - discuss training options and support services, and offer careers advice.

Job Fairs are held at Coventry Building Society Arena every three months, often attracting as many as 700 jobseekers and professionals seeking a new challenge. The events have grown in popularity with both employers and candidates, who can also get tips on how to improve their CV, interview skills and build confidence.

Each event is free to attend and provides a welcoming environment for people at all stages of their career journey; whether they are seeking their first role, returning to the workplace or aiming to progress in their current profession.

Sean Heppinstall, Head of Operations at Job Fairs by The Bridge, which organises the event, said: "We’re thrilled that The Volvo Group will be exhibiting at the next Coventry Jobs Fair. Having a world-leading employer of this scale and reputation involved underlines the credentials of our event and a great opportunity for local jobseekers.

“Meeting in person remains one of the most valuable parts of any jobs fair, allowing candidates to learn more about organisations, ask questions and make meaningful connections.

“Whether they are entering the job market, changing direction or searching for their next role, attendees will be able to access the information, support and opportunities they need to take the next step in their careers."

Jenni Ford, Director of Sales and Marketing at Coventry Building Society Arena, said: “Over the years, hundreds of people from the local community have begun their careers with us, progressing into senior positions, moving into new sectors or securing roles closely linked to their studies and interests.

“Hosting Coventry Jobs Fair is a natural fit with our commitment to supporting employment opportunities and career development across the region.

“Alongside discovering vacancies, visitors can gain practical advice on strengthening their CVs, which can make a real difference in building confidence during what is often a challenging period.

“It’s an extremely worthwhile event for both jobseekers and employers, and we’re delighted to continue supporting it.”
