BREng rolls out apprenticeship programme
B
REng, the low carbon cooling and heating specialist, is expanding its workforce in response to growing demand for its services
nationally. The fi rst apprentice to be appointed in the recruitment drive is Adam Sykes, a 17-year-old trainee, based at the company’s headquarters in Hull. Sykes will follow a three-year Level 3 course funded
by a government training grant, with specialist modules in HVAC and electrical theory and the option to progress to Level 4/5/6 degree-level equivalent qualifi cation.
Rob Smelt, managing director of BREng, said: “The goal is to develop Adam into a fully qualifi ed Building Services Project Engineer, ensuring a 360-degree understanding but with a bias towards the electrical side of HVAC systems, to compliment BREng’s existing capabilities.” The BREng training program includes CIBSE courses and in-work support from specialists co-opted
from local contractors embedded within BREng to expand its skills base, with reciprocal arrangements for BREng specialists to support collaborating companies. Sykes is already working on active commercial
projects for BREng, supporting lead HVAC designer Tom Smelt on a major project at a world-renowned automotive manufacturer in Crewe, and carrying out site decarbonisation audits/surveys of schools with Jack Marvin-Smelt, BREng Hull’s digital surveyor, in preparation for installation of heat pumps and upgraded heat emitters. Smelt said: “Demand for low carbon cooling and heating is expanding at a tremendous rate. The need to decarbonise the national building estate will require a huge increase in manpower and skills to achieve the UK’s net-zero targets, and we are only just in the foothills of this challenge.”
