Fair could be just the job!

Hartlepool Borough Council is working in partnership with the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) to stage the “jobs extravaganza” at the Best Western Grand Hotel on Thursday February 14th from 9.30am-1.30pm.

A range of employers covering a variety of sectors, including construction, care, production, cable pulling, factory work, taxi driving, security, admin, IT and manufacturing will be present.

There will also be information and advice on apprenticeship opportunities.

Representatives from the National Careers Service will be in attendance to offer a range of support to job seekers to enable them to compete effectively in today’s labour market.

The Grand Hotel will host the jobs fair

The free event is being held on a drop-in basis.

Councillor Kevin Cranney, Chair of Hartlepool Borough Council’s Regeneration Services Committee, said: “The Council has an on-going commitment to get people into good quality employment or training.

“Similar previous events have proved to be really successful and I expect this to be the case again.

“The fair is a terrific opportunity to meet and talk to employers who currently have jobs on offer and I would urge people to call in.”
