Work experience spans school placements, insight days, shadowing and paid part-time work. There is no single national portal that lists every opportunity. Start with your school careers lead, local employers you already know, and official careers pages.

On Navigait, filter the jobs board for work and insight kinds, keep the UK filter on, and open the employer’s link to apply. Roles tagged from public boards are real URLs we saw at ingest time; they can still close without notice.

For younger students, safeguarding matters: prefer programmes run through schools or named employers with clear supervision policies. Navigait does not arrange placements; it helps you discover live postings and track deadlines you care about.
