Opportunity Sheffield is the employment and skills service within Sheffield City Council.

We help out-of-work South Yorkshire residents get into employment. We support participants to overcome barriers to employment and career progression.

We also work with employers to identify, recruit and retain employees and build a stronger team.

Our work with local and regional partners identifies gaps in employment and skills services and aims to fill them.
