Burton based Yee Group is reinforcing its commitment to nurturing careers in the electrical industry by welcoming three new apprentices to its growing team.
These budding electricians, Oliver, Morgan, and Edgars, will undertake their training with JTL Training in conjunction with local colleges while gaining hands-on experience at Yee Group, a company renowned for its dedication to developing future talent.
Yee Group has a long-standing tradition of supporting apprenticeships and actively participates in local careers fairs to inspire young people to explore the diverse opportunities available in the electrical sector.
The latest recruits are no exception, each bringing enthusiasm and a passion for the industry.
Morgan shared his excitement about joining Yee Group: “I am very excited about joining Yee Group.
“I know the company has developed many apprentices like me. It’s a great company to work and learn in, and the team has gone out of their way to welcome me and help me settle into working life.”
For Oliver, the journey to becoming an electrician started early: “My interest in becoming an electrician began quite young.
“I always had small electronics projects on the go and even built a motor bike from scratch. Studying at Loughborough College while working at Yee Group is a great combination. I’m a big fan of earning while I’m learning.”
Edgars also has big dreams for his career: “I’ve always wanted to become an electrician. Qualifying is my first goal, but one day, I hope to run my own business.”
The company’s group general manager, Jason Cooper, is a shining example of the company’s investment in apprenticeships.
Starting as an apprentice himself, Jason has risen through the ranks and now plays a key role in the business.
He added: “All members of our team commit their time to supporting our apprentices because they truly represent the future experts of our business.
“As I know firsthand, an apprenticeship is a great foundation for a fulfilling career.”
By fostering new talent and supporting apprenticeships, Yee Group continues to invest in the next generation of skilled professionals, ensuring a bright future for the electrical industry.
