Jack is a Level 2 Carpentry & Joinery apprentice who is working as a Site Carpentry. By studying in college alongside his on-site work, Jack has been able to reinforce his skills in the workshops with support from his tutor. This then helps him to perform even better in his work and complete projects to a higher standard. He hopes to use his skills to build a successful career in the construction sector and ultimately give back to the next generation by taking on his own apprentice.
