East LinkUp Portal
Our careers portal is your all-in-one engagement platform for careers education and workforce collaboration.
Built for schools, colleges and employers, our portal brings education and business together in one intelligent, easy-to-use platform. It removes the friction from organising careers activity, work-based learning and partnership working - replacing fragmented systems with real-time, joined-up collaboration.
Why use the LinkUp Portal
Employers
Through our North East Ambition programme, we're collaborating with over 500 educational institutions, from primary schools to further education colleges, to embed high-quality careers education across the region. The LinkUp Portal makes it easy for employers to connect with schools and colleges, offer support for career-related events, and engage with activities that inspire young people. By getting involved, you’ll help shape future talent and strengthen your own pipeline for recruitment.

Educators
We support our region's schools and colleges with the planning, implementation and evaluation of their Careers Education provision, aligned with the eight Gatsby Benchmarks. A crucial aspect of this is facilitating engagement with employers, to ensure that every pupil should have multiple opportunities to learn about work, employment and the skills that are valued in the workplace, as well as first-hand experience of the workplace to help their exploration of career opportunities and expand their networks.
