“Future Jobs Wales is a forward-looking interactive resource which we continue to develop to provide meaningful data to our customers.

“Since its launch in 2023, the resource has empowered people across the country with industry specific information to help them understand more about some of the options available to them.   

“With the addition of regional filters, this data will help individuals on a more personalised basis, enabling them to make informed decisions based on where they live or work.

“We’re now looking ahead at future developments of the resource, including additions to the industries featured.”

Over the coming months, the industries section of Future Jobs Wales will expand to include jobs in care, creative, digital and retail and customer service.
