“The success of our company relies on its people and our apprenticeship scheme provides the opportunity for young people to commence and develop their careers within our organisation,” said Emma Burgon, engineering director, William Hughes. “As we continue to grow, we are constantly creating opportunities for skilled setters together with middle and senior managers. We are delighted that many of these positions are being filled by apprentices when they have finished their formal training.”
