We are pleased to announce that SCAS will be hosting a large‑scale Recruitment Fair at Sunderland City Hall on Thursday 24 September 2026. This event is a key part of our ongoing work to strengthen our workforce, raise the profile of SCAS as an employer of choice, and ensure we continue to deliver high‑quality, person‑centred support to the people of Sunderland.
The Recruitment Fair will bring together colleagues from across the company to create a welcoming, informative, and high‑energy event for people interested in starting - or developing - a career in care. Attendees will be able to learn more about SCAS, speak directly with staff and customers from our services, and explore a wide range of career opportunities across the organisation.
What the Recruitment Fair will offer
On the day, visitors will be able to:
- Meet SCAS staff and customers from across our care services

The event is designed to give potential applicants a clear and honest insight into what it's like to work for SCAS, while enabling us to safely and efficiently move people into our recruitment pipeline.
