Working in the Borough
The Yorkshire coast
can provide companies with a winning combination of a willing and
competitive workforce and a wide range of property &
development sites.
The local economy offers wage rates that are
below the national average and the workforce is proving to be
adaptable which offers great potential to relocating
businesses.
Business Parks
The Borough has three major
business parks in
Scarborough, Whitby and Hunmanby with the Scarborough Business Park
recently having doubled in size and a variety of smaller
business centres in both urban and rural
locations.
Communications
Communications into the area are better than you
would think.
An ultra-high speed fibre connection facility
provides businesses with the reliability and bandwidth they need
and investment in Next Generation Broadband with 100Mb capacity
will ensure businesses on the coast can compete in global market
places.
Regular rail services can take you swiftly into
the centres of York (45 minutes), Leeds (1 hour 15
minutes) and London (in three hours) – and York is just
an hour away by road.
