Datalink Electronics have previously taken part in the East Midlands Development Agency Coaching for High Growth Programme to achieve growth and create jobs.
Part of the reason we were chosen for that programme was our capacity for growth, drive, vision and enthusiasm. This is something we believe we could not achieve without a continuously developed workforce, complemented perfectly by hiring the freshest talent and developing them on the job, through apprenticeships.
As a result we have recently taken on 5 new apprentices who are studying courses at Loughborough College. They will be learning invaluable skills working on the job, whilst studying 1 day a week at college.
Please welcome our new apprentices to the engineering team:
• Shane Nooney
• Michael Bott
• Ryan Bills
• Connor Rennocks
Their course, Advanced Modern Apprenticeship in Engineering, includes a BTEC National Diploma along with 5 key skills at Level 2, 8 NVQ’s at Level 2, and 3 NVQ’s at Level 3.
We also welcome Zoe Henderson, starting an apprenticeship in our Purchasing department in conjunction with her Level 2 NVQ Certificate in Business & Administration at Loughborough College.
“I decided to apply for Datalink because I felt the company would give me the best possible start to my working career as well as good future opportunities. Everyone is very sociable and friendly and I’m extremely happy I succeeded in getting the job.”
Once Zoe has found her feet, she will aim to gain a CIPs qualification in Purchasing, ensuring that our Purchasing department is completely up to date with the latest industry developments.
