London Christmas Job Fair at Kensington Town Hall. Come and meet employers with vacancies for 2026 in a variety of sectors at all levels. Looking for a job or thinking about
Looking for a job or thinking about retraining next year. The London Christmas Job Fair at Kensington Town Hall on 8 December 2025 could be just what you need. With employers from across London covering a wide range of sectors and levels, there will be real vacancies for 2026 waiting for you.
You can meet employers face to face and explore full time, part time and temporary roles. Training providers will also be there to talk about fully funded courses if you are considering a new direction or want to build on the skills you already have. It is a useful event for anyone switching sectors, starting out or simply searching for something fresh.
Attending a job fair gives you more than a list of openings. You have the chance to speak directly with people who make hiring decisions which helps you understand what employers are looking for and how you can stand out. It is also a good way to grow your confidence through real conversations rather than relying only on online applications. You can ask questions, listen to advice and get a better sense of what different companies offer.
If you want to begin 2026 with new options this fair is a simple way to open a few doors. Prepare a short introduction about yourself and bring a paper copy of your CV so you feel ready to talk about your experience. A relaxed conversation with the right employer can lead to opportunities that may not appear on job boards.
With a mix of roles, training routes and friendly exhibitors under one roof this event gives you a practical way to move forward before the new year begins.

Ever wanted to improve your relationships and communications skills with others? Come and find out what you may be missing…! Would you like to have outstanding communication
Would you like to have outstanding communication skills to have fulfilling relationships and truly get what you want out of your life and work?
In professional and social settings, passive listening (hearing without actively engaging or empathizing) can leave you feeling like you are unheard and undervalued. Disruptive environments and information overload in a busy city can also hinder effective communication.
There could be a crisis of confidence in communication among UK workers, including Londoners. Many people struggle with being direct, fear being judged by colleagues, and use too many words to make a point which can hinder clarity.
Master the art of communication by learning how to overcome the barriers that inhibit you from having the success and rewarding relationships.
There are many facets to communicting effectively.
Come to our lecture and mini-workshop and find out how you can learn what these are and then be able to master the art of communication.
“As we know, and as we can demonstrate with the greatest of ease, communication is the universal solvent.” – L. Ron Hubbard

The city is full of women like you – strong and ambitious, carrying the weight of teams, targets, and often toddlers, but where are these women? They’re spending another Tuesday night scrolling through Linkedin, pretending those 47 ‘meaningful new connections’ are actually meaning something but they don’t.That’s why we created People Like Me, the anti-networking network for women in marketing. No podiums, No pitches and No Powerpoints. Just real women having real conversations that only happen when you find your people. Our community emerged from a simple observation: traditional networking events aren’t serving our deeper need for meaningful relationships. Big events, conferences and conventions don’t cut it. We want small, intimate and informal connections. We’re for women who are over perfectly curated LinkedIn posts and would kill for an honest conversation about a big challenge, a new role or just wanting to connect after a good or bad day at the office. Brilliant women, being brilliantly human, in London, a city that sometimes feels like it was designed by an algorithm.
