The Essex LSIP includes an evidence base and data annex which contains a wealth of skills and employment data, including projected growth and vacancies. This has helped to inform the Essex priorities alongside employer feedback and enabled the recommendations to be developed. This will be shared when the Essex LSIP is published.

Sector Spotlight

As part of our ongoing work with the LSIP, we have made a commitment to complete sector deep dives for each of our ten priority sectors. The sector we will be completing the first deep dive on will be transport and logistics. This sector has a large presence within Essex, including two airports, two ports and a number of infrastructure projects. Two Freeports are also based here. We look forward to sharing this with you.
