Keenan Progresses Into Employment Following Targeted Recruitment and Training Programme

 

A targeted recruitment and training initiative delivered in partnership with Blue Water Recruitment has helped open new employment pathways for young people in the nearby village of Penrys. The programme, designed to support local talent and connect them with industry opportunities, has already begun to demonstrate promising outcomes.

We are delighted to announce that participant Keenan (pictured) has successfully progressed into employment as a labourer within our groundworks division on site at Clydach Vale ALN School. His achievement marks a significant milestone for the programme and highlights the value of collaborative working between training providers, contractors, and community partners.

Owen Lewis, Smiths’ Site Manager, commented: “Keenan has become a very dependable and hardworking member of the site team. We are really pleased with his progress and his eagerness to learn.”

Our sincere thanks go to Blue Water Recruitment for introducing and leading the programme. We also extend our appreciation to Morgan Sindall for their ongoing support in helping make initiatives like this possible.

We wish Keenan every success in his new role and look forward to seeing his continued development in the industry.
