Wakefield recruitment drive for jobs including park rangers, gardeners and road maintenance
The biggest ever recruitment drive for the Wakefield Council’s Neighbourhood Services team kicks off this week.
The council has over 20 roles available, including jobs working in green spaces as park rangers and gardeners, road maintenance and gully maintenance crews, as well as a business support officer, mechanic, a waste recycling operative and HGV drivers.
The Leader of the Council, Coun Karl Johnson, will open the event on Friday, June 26, at the Kingswood Suite, Wakefield Town Hall from 10.30am to 1.30pm.
Coun Johnson said: “We’ve got some great opportunities for local people who are looking for local jobs.
“This is a great opportunity to start a new career with us. And make a positive difference to where you live.
“We support every employee so they can develop their skills and make progress in their careers.
"Come along on Friday to find more.”
The informal drop-in event offers an opportunity for prospective candidates to meet recruiting managers and current employees.
They can gain an understanding of available jobs and learn what a typical day in these roles looks like.
There’s no need to book in advance, just go to reception in the town hall on the day.
Jobseekers just need to bring their CV.
Refreshments will be available at the event.
