Careers with Impact event poster

Careers with Impact: information on careers in the public sector, NGOs and charities

Information on careers in charities, NGOs and the public sector: this event aims to demystify how you can embark on a meaningful career in these sectors and have an impact on your community. 

Are you interested in:

  • Turning your passion into a purpose-driven career
  • Building the necessary skills to break into a career with social impact
  • Getting exclusive access to employers in the above sectors

Call into Astra Hall between 11am and 2pm on Wednesday 2 April to meet with employers from a variety of charities, NGOs and public sector bodies.  Organisations like the Irish Red Cross, ISPCC and Dublin City Council will share insights into their day-to-day work, the skills you might need and how you can get started.
