I joined AW’s LV= sole supply site in Denaby Main in January 2019 as a multi-skilled apprentice. I really enjoy carrying out MET and Panel work and get great job satisfaction after carrying out a repair. I’ve been doing a alot of repairs on my own from start to finish (except painting the cars) after just 1 year, which is great. The support from the team to help further my knowledge is appreciated too.
I joined AW’s Fast Finish centre in Derby in January 2019 as a multi-skilled apprentice. I’m really enjoying working on all different vehicles and that every job is different, it really broadens your knowledge quite quickly. My favourite element of the repair process is panel, I like being able to see the lines in a panel. In the time i’ve been with AW i’m really happy with how i’ve progressed in such a short time and can’t wait to get stuck in to more repairs.
I joined AW as a multi-skilled apprentice in January 2019 at their Newark site. I’m really enjoying being multi-skilled as you cover everything, whether that’s MET, Panel or Paint, plus each skill you learn is to such a high standard. My proudest moment since being with AW would be when I prepped, primed and painted a bumper on my own to a professional level.
I joined AW Nottingham as a multi-skilled apprentice in January 2019. I really enjoy the fact i’m learning a trade that I can have a great career in whilst being paid. I don’t currently have a favourite element of the repair process, i’m enjoying all aspects, MET, Panel & Paint. All the knowledge i’ve gained is invaluable, the team are great here, but being presented with an award at an industry even was special.
I am a multi-skilled apprentice at AW’s Markham Vale site and joined in December 2017.
I joined AW in January 2019 at their Denaby Main site as a multi-skilled apprentice. I’m currently really enjoying the MET aspect of the multi-skilled role and enjoying the challenge of doing certain jobs on my own, the team are so supportive and helpful. I have already completed a large repair using minimal filler from start to finish – apart from the paint aspect, it was great to see that completed!
Jacob joined AW’s Derby LV sole supply site in January 2019. He is a multi-skilled apprenticeship currently really enjoying the paint aspect of the whole repair process. He’s loves the people he works with and enjoys the working environment. His biggest achievement to date is learning how to paint a panel to a good finish, it gives him a great sense of satisfaction.
