Assisting project managers on-site and overseeing specific M&E packages ensuring they meet quality standards, tight deadlines, are cost efficient, and meet the requirements set by the client. It is also my job role to ensure all operatives meet health and safety standards set by ourselves and the client.
I have greatly developed my communication skills on-site and now feel confident in my ability to work as a team and challenge people when necessary.
I enjoyed the blocks of college as it broke up the year nicely and allowed me to focus more when finishing college modules. The team I was working with throughout my apprenticeship are some of the nicest guys I've met which makes work that much more enjoyable.
The programme is well structured when it comes to college. But when it comes to your rotation calendar apprentices are left to sort placements out their selves. This proved quite challenging especially when you don't work in the office and don't know departments.
Received a good amount of support both with college and tasks on-site. Everyone is approachable and helpful.
Leeds college of building professors where all superb. Nice like minded people who were easy to get on with and pushed us to do well.
My qualification suits my role however I am more electrical than mechanical. I feel college is aimed more for mechanical engineers but I am still learning on-site.
We get 2 volunteering days a year which allows us to do raise money for charity together. We also did a lumina spark day with other apprentices. But there are no sports teams or social activities in Scotland that I am aware of.
Yes
They are very much involved with apprentices and I can see they want to do their best to keep everyone to help develop the company in years to come.
Be confident in your abilities as the company has selected you because they know you will soon be capable for your chosen role.
