Jobseekers in Norwich can meet employers face to face today, Wednesday 11 November 2026, as the Norwich Jobs Fair takes over The Forum from 10am to 1pm.

The free event, at The Forum on Bethel Street, Millennium Plain, NR2 1BH, brings together recruiters from a broad range of industries, giving visitors the chance to talk directly to hiring managers, ask about live roles and company culture, and make an impression no online application can match.

What to expect on the day

Organisers say every fair attracts a wide mix of employers and live vacancies, including roles that are never advertised online. Careers advisers will also be on hand with tips on CVs and interview skills, and visitors are advised to bring up-to-date copies of their CV, although it is not essential.

Entry is free, but visitors must register for a free ticket in advance and present it, on a phone or printed, at the entrance for scanning. Organisers recommend arriving before 11.30am to allow time to speak to every recruiter present.

Who can attend

Employers at the fair will require visitors to have the right to work in the UK before they can offer a role. The organisers note there are no sponsorship or Certificate of Sponsorship opportunities at the event.

The fair is run by Job Fairs Ltd, trading as The Bridge, which held its very first jobs fair in Norwich at The Forum back in July 2011. It comes as the UK jobs market cools: official figures show vacancies fell to 691,000 in July to September 2026, their lowest level outside the pandemic since 2014, making face-to-face events a valuable route into work.
