As part of our social value commitment for the Department for Transport (DfT), United Kingdom we recently welcomed 18-year-old local resident Taferrel for a work experience placement.

With plans to begin an apprenticeship in the construction industry this September, the placement gave Taferrel the opportunity to gain valuable insight into the industry and the different career paths available.

During his time with us, Taferrel was shown around site, introduced to our business and projects, learnt more about the importance of social value within construction, and received one-to-one support to develop and strengthen his CV.

We are proud to play a part in supporting the next generation of construction talent and helping local young people take their first steps into the industry.
