National Apprentice Week

We check in with Civil Engineering Apprentice, Ben Dobbin, during National Apprenticeship Week

National Apprentice Week

As WorkPlus Applications open, we speak to Ben Dobbin, undertaking a WorkPlus Apprenticeship with Charles Brand. Ben, currently based on DP World, London Gateway, had this to say as to why he chose an Apprenticeship; “Joining the Apprenticeship scheme has provided me with the opportunity to travel throughout the UK and introduced me to different environments within the Construction Industry. I am currently working at DP World – London Gateway, port side, where we are constructing a new Container Sacking yard while separating live port operations and dealing with strict security requirements’.

A WorkPlus+ Apprenticeship fast tracks you into a career where you can learn as you are earning on the job, and gives you a part to play in your role, meet new people and make new connections.
