J&E Hall takes on new apprentices J
&E Hall has taken on six new apprentices as it expands its scheme. The company has always placed importance on introducing new blood to the industry and it has never been more needed than now, with the age of the workforce rising. New first year apprentices at J&E Hall working in the service business are Jack Blackmore (Cardiff), Scott Pyne (Manchester) Jonathan Burns (Glasgow) and Isaac Dynes (Southampton). Jack MacFarlane (Glasgow) has joined J&E Hall as a second-year apprentice and Aimee Wallis will serve a two-year apprenticeship in administration with J&E Hall’s air conditioning subsidiary company Daikin Applied Services.
J&E Hall human resources manager, Martin Jefkins, said: “It’s well documented that there is a skills’ shortage in the refrigeration industry. At J&E Hall we know it is key to introduce young people to the industry and take advantage of the skills, ideas and thinking that they can bring with them. “There is also a social responsibility on
employers to take on young people and introduce them to the world of work. I am sure that our latest intake of apprentices will have a great future
ahead of them.”
Studying at college is combined with on the job training within J&E Hall in a four-year apprenticeship on service and maintenance work. The young trainees
will be on block release at the Grimsby Institute or Kelvin College in Glasgow, where they will be learning the basics of refrigeration and engineering and

employment and since 2010 has recruited nearly 50 apprentices into the industry. Adam Walker,
one of J&E Hall’s second-year apprentices, won the Bronze Award in the Student of the Year competition at the 2019 RAC Cooling Awards. Many of J&E Hall’s apprentices have gone on to enjoy long and rewarding careers within the company – some lasting 30 or 40 years. Managing director of J&E Hall, Andrew Bowden, and service director Peter McAllister are former J&E Hall apprentices.
