Recognising the skillset overlap between the energy and construction sectors, ScottishPower aims to facilitate a smooth transition for affected workers. The company is investing heavily in upgrading and building new power lines to meet increasing electricity demand, and additional workforce is needed to deliver these projects.
ScottishPower's recent announcement of a doubled investment in the UK, with a significant portion allocated to Scotland, underscores the company's commitment to the region and its workforce.

Sarah McNulty, People and Organisation Director, said: "The massive investment in electricity networks is not just good for modernising critical Scottish infrastructure but for jobs too.
"This is one of our largest ever recruitment programmes and one of the largest in Scotland. Workers at both Ineos and ISG will have the sought after skills we are looking for and we have the jobs to match.
"We're also more than happy to look at how we help people make the move into power networks from oil and gas if they're looking for a career switch so anyone interested should get in touch.
"These are skilled, secure and well-paid roles that will offer a long-term career helping build, operate and maintain the electricity network across central southern Scotland and we also have roles across our renewables business too.
"We recognise it's a concerning time for people whose livelihoods are affected and that's why we've reached out to the HR teams at both companies to flag our opportunities and help get them into new roles as quickly as possible."
