Jobs Plans

Details

As part of the Industrial Strategy, the government is working with industry, trade unions, local partners and wider stakeholders to develop Jobs Plans that address the workforce needs in each of the 8 growth-driving sectors, and in the Construction sector, and deliver opportunities across the country.

These plans complement the Sector Plans published in 2025 and support delivery of the government’s Industrial Strategy.

They set out the workforce and skills challenges facing priority sectors, helping to inform implementation of the post-16 education and skills white paper and the pathways to priority occupations measure. Together, they support a more joined-up and responsive skills system that is better aligned to future workforce needs, supports employer engagement and helps encourage economic growth.
