What is GradsEast?

GradsEast is a free recruitment site linking graduates and students to employers in the East of England. The site, established and maintained by the Careers Services of the universities in the East of England, is funded by the region's top universities, EEDA and supported by i10. 

We are not a recruitment agency.

Employers can advertise free of charge full time vacancies and placement opportunities for graduate level positions that are based in:   
 

• Bedfordshire
• Cambridgeshire
• Essex
• Hertfordshire
• Norfolk
• Suffolk

Job seekers from and beyond the region, browse and search for jobs on site and apply directly with the employer. 

Go to information for graduates or information for employers for more information on how GradsEast can help you with your employment needs.

Graduate funding schemes

Our principle aim is to encourage and facilitate the growth of graduate employment opportunities within the East of England and to support the local economy.  i10’s website gives you access to GRANTnet, a searchable database of different funding streams available for activities such as a Knowledge Transfer Partnership. Short term schemes such as summer placements can give a boost to your business whilst giving a student invaluable work experience. Go to benefit from graduate funding schemes to find out more.
