bring opportunities for all at Grand Hall
East Ayrshire Council’s Economic Development Team have a
growing reputation for working in partnership with local agencies and
businesses to create jobs and provide training for people of all ages. And now
they’re organising, in partnership with Ayrshire College, Skills Development
Scotland, Ayrshire Chamber and Department of Work and Pensions a Training and
Recruitment event on 12 September at the Grand Hall, Kilmarnock to showcase the
opportunities available within many different organisations in the area.
Running from 10.30am until 12.30pm, the event will
feature stalls from many local training providers and employers such as
Hyspec, Police Scotland, Portfolio Recovery Associates, Stagecoach, East
Ayrshire Council, Quarriers, the Army and many others. Open to jobseekers of
all ages, it also includes details about recruitment incentives to help
employers take on people aged between 16 and 29.
The event is a drop in session, with employers on hand to
answer questions and provide information and application forms for jobs.

Trustcare, Scotgrad, The Princes Trust, Volunteer Centre, Ayrshire College and
the Council’s own Economic Development team will be on hand with information
