Offering a SWAP is a powerful way to strengthen your workforce while reducing recruitment challenges. It allows you to see firsthand if an individual is suited to a role within your business before making a hiring decision. You gain access to jobseekers who have undergone industry-specific pre-employment training, ensuring they arrive with the right skills and knowledge. Additionally, with the support of a single point of contact, you’ll have access to a large pool of potential candidates—streamlining the process and saving you valuable time and resources.

Stress-Free Recruitment: We handle the legwork, so you can focus on running your business.
Access to Pre-Trained Talent: Candidates come to you with industry-relevant skills.
Save Time & Money: Reduce recruitment costs while finding the right people faster.
Flexible & Scalable: Fill single vacancies or recruit multiple candidates at once.

This programme is fully funded by the government, meaning there are no direct costs for your business to take part. The only investment required is the time spent training and supervising participants during their placement.

SWAPs bring together your business, Jobcentre Plus, and a training provider (that’s us!) to create a tailored recruitment solution that works for you. You’ll have a dedicated Jobcentre contact to help you find potential candidates, ensuring the process is seamless from start to finish.

Whether you're hiring for a single role or building an entire team, Phoenix Future Skills is here to support, guide, and simplify your recruitment journey.
