Delivering training and developing skills
Once the Lower Thames Crossing is open, we aim to leave a lasting skills legacy - a local, diverse workforce ready to build and maintain infrastructure across the region
Investing in upskilling and training
We are committed to creating an inclusive, supportive working environment, where everyone, regardless of background or experience, can thrive. We know that great projects are built on diverse talent.
That is why we are going beyond inclusive recruitment practices to build a culture where all our people feel welcome, valued, and empowered to succeed.
Apprenticeships, placements and structured training schemes
Our supply chain partners are facilitating successful opportunities through the delivery of early career roles, including apprenticeships, graduate schemes, work experience placements and internships (including supported internships).
Skills Hubs
Our Skills Hubs in Essex and Kent provide free training and guaranteed job interviews with local suppliers, helping to connect local people to local jobs and support a lasting skills legacy.
