Cornwall Opportunities
Foreword Cllr Louis Gardne r It is my pleasure to introduce the second edition of Cornwall Opportunities. In this edition, we turn the spotlight on two sectors of importance to the Duchy; Construction and Creative Industries, both of which offer incredible opportunities for growth and long- term career development. Cornwall’s construction sector is diverse, with projects ranging from sustainable housing developments like Langarth in Truro to major infrastructure improvements like the A30 dualling. For those looking to build their future in a career in the built environment, there are countless pathways to explore—whether it’s through apprenticeships, training programmes like Skills Bootcamps, or further and higher education courses offered right here in Cornwall. The demand for skilled workers continues to rise, creating an exciting and sustainable career environment for job seekers at all levels and ages. Equally exciting is Cornwall’s flourishing Creative Industry. From digital media to film production, design, and the arts, this sector is now rightly recognised as one of the cornerstones of our local economy. The creative spirit in Cornwall has deep roots, and today, more than ever, it offers a wealth of opportunities for those wishing to express their talents. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to elevate your career, there’s never been a better time to explore a creative career. I encourage everyone to take advantage of the resources highlighted in this issue and on the Cornwall Opportunities website, to not only find employment but to shape a fulfilling and rewarding career.
