The scheme offers a subsidy to small to medium enterprises based in the North East. Companies can access £135 per week for 12 weeks as salary support to employ a graduate.

To be eligible as a company, you must be based in the North East and offer an annual salary of £14,000 or above.

We also offer a free recruitment service supporting the growth of local small to medium businesses.
