East Yorkshire and Northern Lincolnshire has something to offer everyone - a place where your family can go walking in the Wolds one weekend and be on the beach the next. A place that is UK City of Culture 2017 and where you can afford to choose between a beamed cottage in a picturesque village or a large family home overlooking the Humber Estuary. As a region, the area is progressive, seeing billions of pounds worth of private sector investment across multiple thriving industries - leading to a diverse array of immediate career opportunities. Public sector improvements such as multi-million pound leisure and cultural facilities, retail and historical realm works are also being made across all four local authorities - enhancing the area’s vibrancy and solidifying its legacy for future generations to come.
With low commute to work times offering that sought-after work-life balance, lower than average house prices, a fantastic choice of schools and areas of unrivalled natural beauty - whatever a great quality of life means to you, we’re pretty sure \RXōOOƓQGLWKHUH
