Employment Support

Haringey Council provides a range of services through the Haringey Works - Employment and Skills team who can help you get a job and progress with your career. These services can provide you with the skills to return to employment, prepare you to apply for jobs, and guarantee you interviews for suitable jobs.

On these pages you can also find information about:

more job-search support
help in finding good local childcare
how to improve your language and basic skills
what benefits you may be entitled to, including in-work tax credits

If you are new to the country, we also have information on working in the UK.

Haringey Learns (Adult Learning) offers career Information Advice and Guidance to help adults at any stage of their lives to make choices about their skills, career options and qualifications, and support learners on Haringey Learns courses to get the best out of their course and plan what to do after their course.
