The Fair – organised by Middlesbrough Council – will also see the launch of the Tees Valley Youth Employment Initiative Middlesbrough partnership aiming to help young people aged 15 to 29 move into employment and learning opportunities.
Middlesbrough Mayor Dave Budd, who will officially open the Job Fair, said: “Middlesbrough is well established as the economic heart of the Tees Valley City Region, and that’s increasingly reflected in the range and quality of businesses choosing to invest here.
“They’ve seen the town’s potential as a key leisure and business destination and they’re bringing the jobs and career opportunities that will underpin a prosperous future.
“The latest Job Fair is a great opportunity to find out more about the companies and the roles they’re looking to fill – I hope as many people as possible come along.”
The Job Fair takes place at Middlesbrough College Wednesday, July 13 from 10am – 3 pm. Admission is free and all are welcome to attend. Café areas are available on site for refreshments.
