    Brief

    The Council is seeking an experienced external partner to design, develop, and deliver the Newry, Mourne and Down (NMD) Labour Market Partnership Get Work Ready programme across the entire Council area. This programme supports unemployed and economically inactive individuals to progress into employment, education, training, or other sustainable pathways. The partner will provide targeted, personalized employment support and advice to help participants secure fulfilling, long-term paid employment (minimum 16 hours per week at National Minimum Wage or above) and assist those in lower-paid roles, including Universal Credit recipients, to progress into higher-paid positions. The programme aims to enhance employability, increase long-term labour market participation, and align delivery with local labour market needs and Labour Market Partnership strategic objectives.
