The Most Autumn Winter 2021/2022

Luke | LGV Maintenance & Service Technician | Porsche “The team at Porsche are fantastic and I’m settling in already. I have always wanted to work in a dealership and to be able to work on these prestigious cars and learn new skills is incredible. I’m so pleased to have been given this opportunity and looking forward to what the future holds.” Emily | Fabrication & Welding | Leyland Trucks “Throughout my apprenticeship I’ve attained so many new skills and notably expanded my knowledge. This has allowed me to manufacture components to the highest possible standard. I really appreciate every moment at Leyland Trucks. I work with an incredible team who have helped guide me throughout, to get me where I am today and who have made me look forward to coming into work every day. Stepping into the world of engineering as a woman seemed quite challenging when I first started my apprenticeship, but it’s been the complete opposite. I’d encourage any women who are considering an apprenticeship through engineering to go for it!” Piers | LGV Maintenance & Service Technician | Bowker BMW “I can’t recommend the Service Apprenticeship enough. I went to college but transferred onto the apprenticeship as I much prefer practical, on-the-job learning. The team here are fantastic and I’ve learnt so many skills from the technicians including how to work on brakes, engines and servicing cars. I would say to anyone who is thinking about an apprenticeship; gain some work experience - you never know what doors it can open.” Morgan | LGV Service & Maintenance Technician | Audi “I have always had an interest in cars in and outside of college. It is a challenging subject and it’s different to the other college courses that were on offer after school. I started at Preston College by studying the Level 2 Automotive course and I’m progressing to an apprenticeship with Audi. My tutors at college have taught me well and my CV was strong. So when I saw the apprenticeship with Audi I applied and got an interview straight away. I’m really looking forward to learning in a real environment and going to the big training facility that Audi have in Milton Keyes.” 17
