Fife Council will host a third Jobs Fair at the Geln Pavilion in Pittencrief Park, Dunfermline to promote their wide range of vacancies and career opportunities, with locals in Cowdenbeath urged to attend.

Organised in partnership with the DWP, the event on 30th October (from 10am til 2pm) will host presentations from a range of council services and offer opportunities to speak to current staff about vacancies on offer and what it’s like to work with Fife Council.

The previous event held in May 2024 was extremely successful, with over 700 people coming along to find out about working with the council.

Head of HR Sharon McKenzie said: “The turnout at our jobs fair at the Rothes Halls earlier this year was really encouraging.  It was a great opportunity to bring our vacancies to life, with staff on hand to share their experiences about working in a range of roles from catering and admin to adult social care and cleaning.

There will be lots of opportunities to find out more about working with Fife Council at our event.”

School admin, BTS (IT roles), early years and pupil support, home care, catering, cleaning and waste operations are among the council services who will be represented.

There will be opportunities to listen to presentations from selected services and find out more about the application process.  Fife Council’s Deaf Communication Service will be available to provide advice and support to jobseekers.  They will use British Sign Language (BSL) for those attending the presentations.

Representatives from our Community Jobs Clubs, Employability Service, and Recruitment team will also be in attendance to offer support. They plan to have informal chats about people’s interests, skills and experience which will allow them to match them to vacancies or guide them through the online application process.

If you are unable to make it to the event, you can see a selection of job vacancies on the Council’s dedicated website: fife.gov.uk/jobs
