Openreach has announced it will create and fill around 500 more Scottish jobs during 2022, including around 390 apprenticeships, as it continues to invest billions of pounds into its UK broadband network, people and training.
The mammoth build is on track to reach 25 million UK homes and businesses by December 2026 and has already reached more than half a million properties in Scotland.
The hiring spree is part of a wider recruitment drive which will see the creation of 4,000 new jobs across the UK and is the largest in Openreach’s history - its workforce now tops 3,700 across Scotland.
