The firm – which currently employs over 200 staff on the Fylde coast – has pledged more careers following a successful two-day recruitment event in May. Managing director Andy Pilley – who is also the chairman of Fleetwood Town Football Club – already employs around 700 in the area through various businesses.

Andy said: “It gives us enormous pride to recruit local people and we’re keen to offer people not just a job, but a career at BES Utilities. The response has been amazing and I’ve been really impressed with the quality of people interviewed – it’s surpassed our expectations.
