HS2 Jobs and Brokerage Board

Many constituents are opposed to the HS2 project, and I share their concerns about value for money as well as the hugely negative impact on our local area. 

Nevertheless, if HS2 is to go ahead, I want to ensure that my constituents have the chance to benefit in any way possible.

HS2 have launched a Digital Jobs Skills Board, bringing together all the opportunities to work directly on HS2 in one place. The new HS2 Jobs Board offers those looking for work or a change of career, the opportunity to search the latest vacancies with their construction partners and station contractors delivering Phase One of the railway. The HS2 Jobs Board can be found here. 

HS2 are also partnering with the Department for Work and Pensions and their local network of job centres in Northamptonshire to help support local people access the employment opportunities on the project.

If you are concerned about the HS2 project in our area please contact me on andrea.leadsom.mp@parliament.uk so I can raise it directly with HS2 and the HS2 Minister.
