After years of education, I was tired of the classroom environment and wanted somewhere to apply my knowledge in a practical way. I looked in to apprenticeships because they seemed look a good way to gain practical work experience while also still challenging myself academically. Thatchers stood out to me because of their family values and attention given to individual employees, allowing for amazing progression opportunities. Since starting at Thatchers I have seen great improvements in my confidence and been given many chances to showcase my skills. I have recently moved from the production lines to engineering & project management!
