Starship, Kevin Hardy

“We have seen a lot of business growth in 2023 and as a result we required a larger workforce. We worked with NLB to fulfil a large volume of job vacancies. The process from start to finish was fantastic. They completed community recruitment in partnership with DWP and using city region funding and as a result we have taken on six fantastic employees with new construction skills delivered by NLB. We will be working with them in 2024 as our business continues to grow and apply social value through them.”

NLB delivered this funded training as part of a Liverpool City Region skills bootcamp, we had 11 candidates on programme. 10 out of 11 candidates gained construction employment, those unsuccessful with Starship were placed with other city region approved employers who apply social value as part of their recruitment process. Resulting in 91% job outcome success!
