Plus Dane Housing has welcomed seven new apprentices into the organisation, just as National Apprenticeship Week 2023 #SkillsForLife kicks-off, and has also opened the doors to three more apprentice vacancies this week.
The seven new apprentices cover a range of vocations across the business including: People Team Administration Apprentice; Community and Customer Engagement Apprentice; Anti Social Behaviour and Community Safety Apprentice; Plasterer Apprentice; Groundworker Apprentice; Heating Engineer Apprentice; and Electrical Apprentice. You can hear what our new apprentices have to say in our short videos here.
National Apprenticeship Week provides Plus Dane with an ideal opportunity to welcome new apprentices and celebrate the achievements of current apprentices and the positive impact they make to our customers, communities, business, and the wider economy.
Former apprentice from the ‘lockdown’ class of 2020, Miloslawa Zalewska-Juszczak, (known as Milka), has recorded her experiences of moving to a new country and changing career to become a mature apprentice with Plus Dane. Listen to Milka’s story here.
Plus Dane are now encouraging applications for three more apprentices to join the team. The vacancy application process opened this week. Interested applicants can apply here.
Amy Causley, Director of People for Plus Dane, said: “We recognise that apprenticeships offer genuine life-changing opportunities and we are committed to providing chances for people to be able to earn while they learn, whether in roles out in our communities, including trades, or office-based positions. We are committed to providing meaningful employment and career opportunities for those wanting a vocational route and our apprenticeships really do offer SkillsForLife.”
