EcoWorld London partner with the Borough of Barking & Dagenham to organise career fair
Last week, EcoWorld London held a careers fair at their newest residential development, Barking Wharf. Welcoming over 75 people local to the borough, the day showcased training and professional opportunities in the construction industry, from apprenticeships in electrical, plumbing and brickwork, to positions in administration and site management. EcoWorld London worked in partnership with Midgard and the London Borough of Barking and Dagenham (LBBD) to host the event on the live construction site, which is due to complete in 2021.
Over 75 people from Barking and Dagenham attended the careers fair, at which the council’s Employment Engagement Officers, Job Centre Plus, and Barking Job Shop presented available positions within the companies subcontracted on the development, including JRL Civils, UK Facades, JRL Dry-lining and ARK M&E. From the event, 8 people have been offered full-time jobs and work placements on the project with many more scheduled for second round interviews.
The event was opened with speeches from Heng Leong Cheong, CEO of EcoWorld London, Cllr Darren Rodwell, Leader of Barking and Dagenham Council and Kevin Keegan, Director of Midgard Ltd. Also present was William Barton, one of the first local residents to be employed on the scheme via LBBD in conjunction with EcoWorld London and Midgard.
Barking Wharf is set for completion in 2021, by which time the project would have created over 100 new jobs and 15 apprenticships for local people, in addition to holding several career advice and guidance events to further support Barking and Dagenhams’s community. EcoWorld London has also committed to source at least 40% of plant, labour and materials directly from the borough, with an estimated value of over £40m of construction spend locally. To date, EcoWorld London has invested £9.05m into the project and the London Borough of Barking & Dagenham which include the costs for remedial works of the former brownfield site, Section 106 contributions and CIL payments to the council.
