Employers
Call out to employers and volunteers!
As an academy, we are always very keen to work with local and national employers. We encourage our students to have as many encounters as possible with employers and employees, as well as experiences in the workplace.
To this end, we welcome any volunteers into the academy who are happy to support us with our many careers events, such as mock interviews, support with work experience placements, careers assemblies, careers workshops, the Big Bang Fair, the annual careers fair etc.
Should you wish to find out more information or volunteer your services, please contact us via careers@harriscofeacademy.co.uk.
Thank you to all of you for your continued support!
Please look out for announcements where we put a shout out to employers to support us with assemblies, mock interviews, careers fair and much more!
