Outplacement support in Pontefract
We provide outplacement for Pontefract employers and one-to-one redundancy support for Pontefract employees, with no end date on the support we give.
Who employs people in Pontefract
Pontefract's name is tied to liquorice, and Pontefract Cakes are still produced by Haribo, which took on the tradition when it acquired the local firm Dunhills in 1972. Manufacturing for the town now largely sits at Haribo's plant in neighbouring Castleford. Pontefract also carries racecourse and hospitality employment, and a share of the distribution work that runs along the M62 and A1(M).
Finding work from Pontefract
Pontefract and Castleford function as one labour market in practice, so a search that stops at the town boundary misses most of what is available. We treat them together.
How we work with Pontefract
Pontefract is around 35 minutes from Finningley by road, one of the closer towns we cover. We meet Pontefract employers and employees in person without much difficulty.
