Kickstart

With over 35 years’ experience in the recruitment, employment training and skills sectors, Intec are uniquely positioned to support employers with the Kickstart Scheme. 

The Kickstart Scheme is part of the government’s Plan for Jobs which aims to create thousands  of new roles in organisations across the UK by offering employers additional funding until June 2022. Kickstart aims to support businesses in the creation of new roles and develop well rounded, qualified and capable individuals who bring real value to the organisations they work for.

Under the Kickstart Scheme, any organisation creating a new role for 16-24-year olds will be able to access government funding covering the cost of Kickstarts’ wages (at minimum wage) for 25 hours a week for the first 6 months of their role.

Organisations will also pay no employer National Insurance or pension enrolment contributions for employment and have access to additional funding from the government to cover any potential costs, IE: equipment, PPE or further training.

Intec work in partnership with organisations to deliver the Kickstart programme. Our people are specialists in helping job seekers overcome barriers to employment, providing engaging training and career development sessions to create work-ready employees. We support the organisations we work with every step of the way; developing kickstarts workplace skills, offering them the opportunity to get qualified and helping them access progression opportunities through our apprenticeship provision.

In addition to the basic Kickstart training we can also offer an accredited programme for the Kickstart in one of the following areas:

• Customer Service
• Business Administration
• ICT
• Team Leading
• Digital Skills
• Lean Operations
• Event Planning
