The range of opportunities on offer this time really does give people at any age and stage of their career a chance to find out more and make potentially life changing moves.

“In East Ayrshire one of our biggest assets is our people. We’re known for having a strong, well educated and willing workforce. And we’ve got a whole lot of enthusiastic employers who value their staff and recognise the benefits of putting in time, money and training to achieve the best results.
