Graduation Day!

We recently had a fabulous day with Leap Apprenticeships to celebrate the graduation of our Apprentices. Our cohort had the opportunity to get together and really recognise the achievement of completing their Apprenticeship.  It is never easy to balance the challenges of the 'day job' along with finding time for learning and completing course projects, but at City Plumbing we truly want people to #GrowWithUs and we fully support our colleagues to be able to achieve their career goals

Time to reflect

Being part of this great graduation day and supporting two of his team through the Apprenticeship programme, made Regional Showroom Sales Manager Wayne Shepherd reflect on his time with City Plumbing and the opportunities he has had. Of his experience, Wayne said "I started with City Plumbing back in 2014 with no knowledge of the industry whatsoever! With the support of my manager and colleagues, I completed my level 3 apprenticeship and was soon given the opportunity to manage my own branch. I built my own team and developed them and myself further - supporting two of my team through an apprenticeship was such a great feeling, and seeing them complete the programme made me really proud!"

‍

On to Level 5 and beyond!

Wayne didn't stop at a level 3 apprenticeship or at a branch manager role, he says "I balanced the running of my own branch with a level 5 apprenticeship - this showed my determination and resilience and helped be grow further. I'm now in my first regional role and have no intention of stopping here. With support and encouragement, you really can achieve your career goals at City Plumbing!"
