Apprentice mechanic is excelling in her career

A young woman from Campbeltown is excelling in her career as an apprentice mechanic with 撸sir视频 and Bute Council, having just passed her Cat C HGV driving test.

 

Ashleigh Conner, aged 19, has always had a keen interest in cars and fixing things, and was quick to apply when she saw the Council鈥檚 apprentice vacancy advertised on the My Job Scotland website.

 

Ashleigh is one of 42 young people who have been offered modern apprenticeship opportunities with the council since we began our award-winning Growing our Own Initiative in 2014. Other apprenticeships include IT, Business and Administration, Digital Media, Digital Applications, Waste Management and Youth Work.

 

 鈥楪rowing Our Own鈥 is designed to develop council careers for young people and is about giving young people job and training opportunities that mean they can build rewarding careers in 撸sir视频 and Bute.

 

As well as industry-recognised qualifications, the council offers additional training opportunities such as Duke of Edinburgh Award training and e-learning in a range of topics.

 

The council鈥檚 successful scheme has received national recognition, winning the Apprentice/Graduate award at the S1 Jobs Awards Ceremony last month for 鈥榯rue strategy and passion on delivery鈥.

 

Councillor Rory Colville, Policy Lead for Corporate 撸sir视频, said: 鈥淲ell done Ashleigh. It is great to see our young people flourishing as they develop their careers with the council. It is vital we plan ahead to ensure the council can attract and retain the skills we need to support our communities and area.

 

We are committed to giving our young people a chance that gives them a choice 鈥 we equip them with skills, experience and knowledge of the council鈥檚 work that mean they have options in building a career with us. Ashleigh is a shining success story and I have no doubt at all that she will continue to prosper.鈥
