A special visit for BES Group

As we saw Scottish Apprenticeship week come to an end earlier this month, we were delighted to host a VIP visit at our Livingston office from Miles Brigg, MSP. 

From left to right: Andrew Bell, James Birrell, Claire Weir (Commercial Manager, BES Group), Ross MacDonald (BES Group Unit Leader Scotland) and Miles Briggs.

With six apprentices at this location alone, we were excited to be selected to talk more about our development scheme by Skills Development Scotland.  James Birchell, Training Officer who works closely with each of our local apprentices at West Lothian College, also joined Miles for the visit.

It was a pleasure to talk to our guests about the journey our apprentices go on during their time with us and even better to share that we now have a number of fully qualified Electricians in our team, who initially joined us on our apprenticeship trainee programme.  Robbie Compton, who joined us in October 2011 as an apprentice and is now Senior Planning Manager, is just one fantastic example!

During his tour of our site, we introduced Miles to third year apprentice Andrew Bell.  This gave Andrew the opportunity to showcase some of the work he is involved in during Electric Vehicle charging infrastructure projects for a number of high-profile customers.

The visit was a huge success all round.  We were extremely proud to help raise the profile of Scottish Apprenticeship week and reinforce the importance of developing internal talent via this formal route. 

Thank you to everyone at BES Group Electrical in Livingston for hosting our special guests.
