Coventry Job Fest - Henley

Date: Thursday 5 February 2026
Time: 10am – 2pm
Location: Moat House Leisure Centre, Winston Avenue, Coventry, CV2 1EA

Coventry Job Fest is back and coming to Henley. This event will enable residents to meet key employers, access tailored support and live vacancies with fast-tracked applications and interviews, as well as the opportunity to take part in employability workshop activities using innovative VR headsets.

This is a smaller, more targeted Job Fest designed to connect customers with employers who are actively recruiting. We are expecting opportunities and employer presence across the following sectors (but not limited to):

  • Business Administration
  • Hospitality
  • Early Years/childcare

This is the 4th Coventry Job Fest that is being held in the city, within the last 12 months after huge success connecting Coventry residents with local employers. We look forward to seeing you there!
