Aardvarc Electrical Engineers LTD

Good luck to all the Apprentices !

Today our Construction Manager Jack Ford paid a surprise visit to Seta (Sunderland Engineering Training Association Limited), our apprentice training provider. Whilst there Jack had a tour of the facilities, paying special attention to our first year apprentices who are undergoing their first module of technical training at Seta. Whilst there, Jack watched as our apprentices carried out electrical installations. Jack was very pleased to report that they are doing an excellent job and upholding our companies high standards and expectations.

Today Aardvarc were the main sponsor (again) of the Cat and Dog Shelter golf day. The event was a massive success for the charity raising in excess of £15k Less successful were the two Aardvarc teams coming no where near the (Rediculous!) winning score of 50.7, just the casual 19.3 under par 😂😂😂🥴 Well done team Aardvarc 👌. We continue to drive the business to be successful and support deserving causes in the region more 👍

Today some of the Aardvarc team had a fantastic opportunity to meet some of the brilliant service men and women who are looking for careers beyond their time in the armed forces. We were left with a very good impression of all of the individuals we spoke to, many of which we will be in contact with again to look at potential career opportunities. A big thanks to everyone involved in the event, we look forward to visiting again next year 🎉

Aardvarc are proud to announce the introduction of six new apprentices to our ever expanding team. Today marks the start of their journey to becoming fully qualified Electrical Engineers. The first stage of their training begins this week with our excellent training partner Seta (Sunderland Engineering Training Association Limited), before returning to HQ with the necessary skills to begin work and start learning from our team of experienced Engineers. Congratulations to all of the lads, we look forward to seeing the brilliant engineers you will become 🎉 🙌

Harry is a pupil at Argyle House School Ltd. He is interested in becoming an electrical engineer and has shown great aptitude on his week with the Aardvarc team. It has been a pleasure having him here. Congratulations to Harry Hutchheon for completing an excellent week of work experience.
