Summary
Alloa Jobcentre’s May 27 recruitment event at Alloa Town Hall has already led to 22 people securing work, with 32 more still awaiting interview results.
Stirling and Alloa Jobcentres say those gains came from joint hiring and training efforts across construction, healthcare and services, including three places on Stirling Council’s construction programme and four recruits to NHS Forth Valley’s healthcare academy.
Eight candidates are already booked to interview with McQueens Dairies, while Kier Construction placements at the Callander Primary School site are set to run from mid-June to early July.
Two fully subscribed DWP-funded courses in SIA Security and CSCS cards started in June, as the jobcentres also line up further hiring with Lime Rich, SG Pro Cleaning and Concentrix.
The local push comes as the UK government says employment is up by 400,000 from a year earlier and ties future jobs growth to a £2.5 billion Youth Guarantee and wider labour-market reforms.
