Sandon Global welcomes 5 new recruits to its Apprenticeship Scheme

Sandon Global, international anilox supplier, have recruited a new intake of apprentices to add to their growing team as part of their ongoing commitment to investing in and developing young talent. Furthermore, the last intake of 9 apprentices are currently studying for their HNC in the final year of their course.

The new apprentice intake will begin a comprehensive 4 year programme where they learn the precision of the process from start to finish. Each of the apprentices will adopt best practice engineering techniques and skills used in each of the departments throughout the factory, whilst studying for the Engineering Technician Level 3 course with Riverside College. Jayne Smith, Head of Skills and Enterprise at the college says “Sandon Global place immense value in investing in people and supporting new talent.  We are  proud to be working with them to deliver world class technical training for their new apprentices.”

Dylan Angus, new apprentices, commented “I am very excited to start my journey with Sandon Global, I believe I will learn a great deal from the expert staff and hope to finish my Apprenticeship with a career here.”

Gary Carmichael, Operations Manager, also commented “We pride ourselves in continuous improvement throughout the business. By bringing in fresh faces and training them to the best of their ability we ensure our core values and standards are carried through year in year out. I look forward to watching the apprentices grow into valued members of our team”
