North Lincolnshire Jobs Expo 2021

On Tuesday 16 October, thousands of local jobs will be showcased at the North Lincolnshire Jobs Expo from the regions top employers.

Taking place at The Baths Hall in Scunthorpe, the expo will give jobseekers the chance to speak to employers face-to-face and discover the right opportunity for them.

They are also encouraged to bring copies of their CVs along to discuss their prospects.

Those looking to improve their career prospects or break into the jobs market are encouraged to come along.

The Expo is also targeted at people looking to return to work after the Covid-19 pandemic with the number of people claiming income support already dropping from 5,065 in July to 4,900 in August.

Many businesses will arrange interviews for prospective employees with the possibility to be hired on the spot.

Cllr Rob Waltham, leader of North Lincolnshire Council, said: “There are a great many jobs available across the area and a similar number of people looking for work.

“We must be in a position to support our businesses to get the people and the skills they need to meet their ambitious plans for growth. 

“The plans we have for development across the area are heavily focussed on creating high-quality, well-paid, sustainable jobs, and Government is taking those plans very seriously with millions of pounds of investment – even with the number of vacancies now there are more in the pipeline.

“We’re also seeing, because of a competitive marketplace, employers competing hard to attract good people, so there has never been a better time for people to change their future.

“A strong, motivated workforce will help build back our economy better, improving the outcomes for everyone in North Lincolnshire.”
