Mechanical Maintenance Technician Review

Mechanical Maintenance Technician shadowing qualified maintenance to complete the jobs responsibilties are to complete NVQ work on time taken on a project for college work

gained new qualifiations after taking parts in training courses such as gas detection, working at height and sppump lifting/splitting gained more confidence due to attending open days and speaking to new people

i enjoy the apprenticeship a lot. the team i work with are friendly. the apprenticeship meets my expectations in terms of hands on work.

I feel like i am valued by STW and feel like if my opinions matter. have 1:2:1 meetings with manager eveyry 12-15 weeks. i am involved with tasks when completing jobs on site.

college induction was boring and way too long (6 weeks of health and safety). training on site is good and very hands on. i see assessor every 4 weeks for regular meetings.

assessor offers lots of support with NVQ work. if i need help then i know i can ask any of the team.

only have 1:2:1 meetings with manager. HR team are approachable and friendly. i know i can ask for guidence if needed. people are always happy to help me.

good salary. i pay £35 a week on fuel in my private car as i havent been gifven van tht i cannot claim back. everyone with a can doesnt have to pay for fuel to get to work. i can only claim fuel money for college/training courses.

loads of opportunities outside of work such as open days, open events. if im not working then im in the gym or at home with my family/partner.

Yes

good overall company to work for. everyone friendly and happy to help. good apprenticeship wage.

good application process. be confident in interviews and be yourself. ask any questions you may have to get the most information you can.
