"At the start of my apprenticeship I spent 3 enjoyable months in quality working in the compliance department. This was a great place to start my apprenticeship as it gave me a massive scope of the entire business as quality is incorporated throughout the company. This meant that I was able to gain a vast amount of experience very quickly which has served me well as I have moved through different placements." - Ammon, Engineering Apprentice
