We are only 2 miles from @montrose_port, one of the closest to the expanding offshore wind fields in the #NorthSea. With unrivalled access to offshore renewables, we have a strong focus on attracting a #skilledworkforce, becoming an inspirational and innovative business community

We are delighted to partner @dundee_angus in the effort to open new careers to young people and job transition options for experienced workers. There can be no green energy revolution in Scotland without #greenskills to support it - they are a route to new opportunity.
Another phenomenal partnership for @dundee_angus, linking up with @CrownEstateScot to provide the #greenskills needed to support growth in the green energy sector. The #ZeroFour Hub will be amazing for the region & we are excited to play our part. 💜💙
