West Midlands Employers wanted to raise awareness of local government and public sector careers across the West Midlands region, positioning public sector employment as a rewarding, inclusive and meaningful career choice. The campaign aimed to drive traffic to the WMJobs platform and encourage job seekers and career changers to explore opportunities across local authorities and public sector organisations. The audience focused on adults aged 21-55 considering a new role or career change across the West Midlands conurbation, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire, Warwickshire and Worcestershire.
