Employer Offer

As an LCR employer there are a wide range of support options available to you. From funding through to expert advice, our complimentary offer has been tailored to the needs of local businesses and organisations.
Advertise Your Vacancies
Do you have an apprenticeship vacancy?
Do you want to share it with 1000’s of Liverpool City Region residents?
We have changed the way in which employers can advertise their apprenticeship opportunities.
Apprenticeship Levy Pledge
The Employer Brokerage Team within the LCR Combined Authority have been working with Levy paying employers to facilitate Levy transfer which will pay 100% of the training costs of an Apprenticeship.
Our aim is to keep as much Levy funding as possible in the City Region to benefit local employers.
Employer Brokerage Support
Finding the time to plan training is never easy, especially when you have a business to run.
Our Skills Brokers provide free impartial expert advice and support and will work on your behalf to ensure you receive the training you need and that you can access appropriate funding where available.
Engaging with Education
A skilled workforce is at the heart of every business.
As a business leader you get enquiries to work with local schools, colleges and universities – and you’ll probably have some questions given the education and skills landscape can be complex to understand.
