The Celtic Freeport aims to support good, accessible jobs, help local businesses grow and give communities greater confidence in the future.
The Celtic Freeport will support existing industries as they decarbonise and grow, while helping new green sectors develop across the region.
We are working with education, training, employers and local partners to create clearer routes into skilled, well-paid work, so more people can work, study and progress locally.
Businesses in the Freeport area already offer a range of employment opportunities, with further roles expected to develop as investment grows.
As these businesses and the Freeport continue to grow and develop, job opportunities will evolve and expand, including roles from welders, electrical engineers and data analysts to marine surveyors, project managers and gas engineers.
A wide range of roles will be needed to support important projects, such as developing port infrastructure, renewable energy facilities and factories. We will continue to update these pages, or you can register to receive updates here.
The Celtic Freeport wants everyone to benefit, whether you are a young person starting your career or returning to work. By widening access to jobs and skills, our ambition is to build fairer and more resilient local economises.
As the Celtic Freeport, grows and develops, investment will also bring wider benefits from better infrastructure to stronger local supply chains.
The Freeport’s success will be measured not only by investment and new infrastructure, but by whether local people and businesses can see, access and benefit from the opportunities it creates.
We will work closely with residents, community groups and councils, and will look to involve the local community in shaping the Celtic Freeport’s future.
