Which company do you work for?
I'm working for KTD Facades and I've been working on outside
walls for them - rendering and fixing metal.
Why did you choose this career?
I chose my apprenticeship because the opportunity came up to
work with a local firm and I just took it.
What do you do day-to-day?
My day usually consists of working in pairs on window framing. I
really enjoy it.
What's the coolest thing you've done so
far?
The coolest thing I've done is having worked on great sites
around the UK. I feel quite proud to have been part of such big
building projects. I haven't worked in construction before. Since
being on this apprenticeship I have learnt a lot.
What are the good bits about your job?
What I love about my apprenticeship is that I work in different
places and I learn a lot as I work. I love being on a site, working
on it and being part of it. I also enjoy working with other people
because I make friends at the same time as I'm working with
them.
What would you say to anyone who wanted to try
this?
I'm proud that I'm an apprentice because I'm getting a
qualification and I'm learning new skills.
