Finning has begun this year’s search for engineering talent as it looks to recruit up to 34 new apprentices with placements available across the company’s 11 branches nationwide.
The apprenticeship program consists of a four-year curriculum where the apprentices will learn all the skills needed to equip them for future roles in the company’s construction and energy divisions. They will also have the opportunity to experience working in all areas of the business and develop skills for life. Last year, following an inspection by Ofsted, the Academy was awarded ‘good’ status.
Craig Smallman, engineering academy manager, is keen to raise awareness of how apprenticeships can play a key role in construction industry, by opening doors for individuals to achieve a rewarding career with longevity.
“It is vital we look to inspire the younger generation to see how rewarding a career in engineering can be both personally and financially. Our apprenticeship program is part of the solution and helps to open the doors for people from all backgrounds.”
