Extern charity seeks new talent at careers open evening

16th January 2020

Extern is a leading social justice charity supporting over 19,500 people each year to change their lives.

For the past 40 years, Extern have worked alongside children, young people, and families, to empower positive change and support family unity.

If you are interested in joining a passionate team, then a career at Extern might just be for you.

As a leading provider of placements for social work students in the voluntary sector, Extern is holding a special recruitment and information event aimed at encouraging those working in social care to find out more about the organisation and the benefits of working in the community and voluntary sector.

The Open House Careers Evening takes place on Thursday, February 6th, at Extern’s headquarters in Newtownabbey. It is aimed at students, as well as those already employed in social work, youth work and social care, and who may be considering a change of role this year.

Staff from across Extern’s wide range of youth and adult services will be on hand to provide details of the organisation’s work, and why working with Extern can provide a strong career path.

Jonathan Carroll, Extern’s Director of People and Organisational Development, said: “Extern is considered one of the leading and most innovative organisations working in the social care and social work sector, and we are always keen to hear from people who have something to offer in this challenging but rewarding area of work. The breadth of services offered by Extern means we have a wide variety of opportunities and specialities available, in a warm and welcoming organisation.”

The Extern ‘Open House’ Careers Evening takes place on Thursday, February 6th, from 5.30-7pm at Extern’s headquarters at 3 McKinney Road, Mallusk, Newtownabbey, BT36 4PX. Food will be served from 5.30-6pm.
