Development of a Strategic Plan for Port Talbot Waterfront Enterprise Zone Advisory Board

Descriptions

The Port Talbot Waterfront Enterprise Zone is the newest of the Wales Enterprise Zones, having been designated in spring 2016 in response to job losses in the Steel industry. The Zone is home to a highly skilled workforce and a wide diversity of sectors - including Advanced Materials and Manufacturing, Energy and Environment and Construction.Each Enterprise Zone has been led since inception by an independent; predominantly private-sector Advisory Board which advises the Welsh Government on the implementation and delivery of action plans and priorities for the Zones.The Cabinet Secretary has asked the Port Talbot Waterfront Enterprise Zone Advisory Board to produce a Strategic Plan which sets out its vision, focus and future direction for the Zone for the three years 2018 – 2021. Accordingly, on behalf of the Board, the Welsh Government is seeking to appoint a consultant to work with the Board to scope out the future requirements of the Zone and work these into a full Strategic Plan for the Zone to cover the period 2018 – 2021.NOTE: To register your interest in this notice and obtain any additional information please visit the Sell2Wales Web Site at http://www.sell2wales.gov.wales/Search/Search_Switch.aspx?ID=79257.
