MP Patricia Gibson and MSP Kenneth Gibson organised a successful Jobs Fair in Saltcoats Town Hall last Friday.

It was the 12th such event the North Ayrshire MP and Cunninghame North MSP have hosted in the last decade.

Mr Gibson said: "Patricia and I held another very successful Employment Fayre, with 51 participating employers.

“These included Balfour Beatty, Bank of Scotland, Boeing, Bristow Helicopters, British Airways, BT Openreach… And that was just those beginning with the letter B!

“Ayrshire College, Skills Development Scotland and University of the West of Scotland were also amongst the participants.

“Thus, there was much to attract those looking for a job or wondering where their future might lie.” 

Patricia Gibson MP added: “I was delighted that last Friday’s event was so well attended.

“There were tremendous opportunities to meet and speak one-to-one with prospective employers and find out just what’s on offer, across a whole range of sectors.

“My thanks to each and every participating employer, attendee and café Solace, who again provided free tea, coffee and biscuits for all.”
