The event which takes place next month, marks the fourth Graduate & Young Professional Fair delivered by Locate Isle of Man, part of the Department for Enterprise, which aims to increase the economically active population in the Isle of Man.
It is aimed at graduates and young professionals considering relocating or returning home to the Island, as well as students currently studying in the Isle of Man.
Attendees will have the opportunity to attend panel sessions, upskill through career-ready workshops, and hear about the latest job and career opportunities from up to 60 participating businesses and organisations.

The popular Career Development Zone, will once again be delivered by Paragon Recruitment, who will provide specialist ‘career-ready’ support, including a CV clinic, interview and coaching tips, personal branding and employability skills advice.
Following the 2023 post-event survey, 78% of attendee respondents stated they were now more aware of the opportunities available as a result of the event, with 50% of attendee respondents reporting they were more likely to seek permanent employment in the Isle of Man, as a direct result of the attending.
To date, over 20 hires have been made as a direct result of businesses meeting attendees at last year’s event, with continued interest and applications from Graduates in the UK, for vacancies in the healthcare and education sectors.
The Isle of Man Graduate and Young Professional Fair returns on March 27 at the Comis Golf Club in Santon.
