Career Stories

  • "When I started, I'd barely held a screwdriver. Now, just three months in, I've done everything from angle grinding and SDS drilling to installing cable trays and replacing light fittings. I've even got my MEWP (Mobile Elevated Work Platform) course next week!"

    Alice, Sodexo Apprentice – Facilities Management

  • "It just made me feel proud of myself that I was actually doing something. It was what I enjoyed. It's what I missed from the care home because it just… I couldn't go any further, but I knew with this, I could go further."
