Results day: whatever the envelope says, the Highlands and Islands needs you.
“Whether today’s results opened the door you were hoping for or not, the Highlands and Islands are on the edge of something extraordinary,” said Mackintosh. “The A9 dualling, offshore wind, energy transmission, pumped storage hydro, thousands of new homes, every one of those projects needs skilled people to build it. That could be you. A career as a plant operator, wind turbine technician, scaffolder or steel fixer is not a fallback option. It’s a genuinely well-paid, in-demand role with many years of great work behind it.”
