Meet the Apprentice Team

The best things about working at CWE are the opportunities, the people and the varied workload. When I first joined CWE, everyone was so welcoming. They understand your learning process and really care about developing you. Every member of the team I’ve worked with has been eager to pass on their knowledge to you and help you progress faster; to become the next them or better. It’s a group of genuine people who can have a joke together, which always makes the working day enjoyable.

Life as a CWE Apprentice feels like being in the real working world. It is so much easier to learn as you, guided by experience, knowledgable and passionate people. It’s a brilliant experience, I’m working and earning money. I am loving getting to know how to use all the machines and how hands on it has been. Everyone has been great with me and it has made it really enjoyable to come to work. My goal is to work hard and learn along the way in the hopes of getting a job here at the end of it.

Apprentice
My experience so far at CWE has been brilliant and insightful. I have been really welcomed by all the staff and can ask any of them for advise. I didn’t want go down the university route, I wanted hands on experience - and of course not having a huge student loan debt is a bonus! An Apprenticeship seemed like the perfect option for me, I wanted to do something that I would enjoy and gain real life experience while getting paid. My aim is to become a valued and trusted member of the team.
