The Government is calling on young people to consider a trade instead of university.

People of all ages and backgrounds can apply. Our Government-backed list – part of The Sun on Sunday’s Builder Better Britain Campaign – comes after criticism of the decision to offer trade jobs to foreign workers at a reduced rate.

Good luck . . .  and happy job-hunting!

‘Get more women into trade’

DRIVEN Kim Lyndon is a level three advanced gas engineer apprentice based in Plymouth.

The 21-year-old fell in love with the trades after completing a three-year plumbing course at college before deciding to embark on another two-year gas apprenticeship.

Kim, who works for Barkwell Plumbing and Heating in Okehampton, said: “I support The Sun on Sunday’s Builder Better Britain campaign and would encourage any young people to get into the trades. If it’s something you want to do then go for it.

“As an apprentice you earn minimum wage, which is around £10 an hour, and I work 40 hours per week, so you’re still making money and working towards a stable career.

“On the majority of the sites that I work on, I’m the only woman and I’m the only female working in my company.

“It would be great to get more women into the trades. We can do it just as well as the men can.

“As a woman, I can get into smaller spaces so I use it as an advantage.

“I’ve always been really hands-on and originally wanted to do carpentry but I realised it wasn’t for me and I went into plumbing and loved it.

“I really wanted to push myself further and specialise more, which led me to my gas apprenticeship.”

‘Glad I ditched uni – I qualify next month’

DEDICATED Katie Jones was recently crowned Screwfix Trade Apprentice 2023.

The 23-year-old, from Burscough, Lancs, said: “Before becoming an apprentice, I went to university but only because my college pushed me to and told me I wouldn’t get far in life if I didn’t.

“I studied criminology at Edge Hill University in Ormskirk, Lancs, but was sat there thinking, ‘This is not for me’. I only lasted one week.

“I took some time out and found it hard to get a job because I didn’t have any qualifications. “I thought, ‘Oh my God, what am I going to do?’ ”

A friend recommended Southport College and Katie started her gas engineering apprenticeship in September 2021 – each week spending one day at college and four days working for Heating People in the North West.

She said: “I had never considered an apprenticeship as I thought they were for school leavers aged 16 to 18. But I got in touch with them and I haven’t looked back.

“I started on £4 an hour and now I’m on minimum wage but I qualify next month and there is a lot of money in plumbing and heating.

“I like the fact there aren’t many girls in this profession. I could have done hairdressing or beauty but it’s so saturated with women. This sets me aside from everyone else.”

‘I love learning & earning’

FATHER-of-one Kyle Burns is doing an apprenticeship in roof tiling and slating at South Lanarkshire College while working for DMG Services Group in Wishaw, near Glasgow.

Kyle, 25, said: “I did a football scholarship in the US and once that ended, I wanted to get into a trade, and roofing in particular.

“I started the apprenticeship four years ago and I’ve never regretted it for a second. It’s one of the best decisions I ever made.

“I didn’t know anything about roofing when I started and now I can start a roof from scratch and complete it on my own.

“I do two weeks in class at college then two weeks on site.

My boss Darren McGhee has a training academy in the office so that’s another place I can further my skills.

“College gives you the basic skills, but you learn a lot more on site as there is so much you cannot learn in a classroom.

“Right now, I’m on £35,000 a year and that’s good for a fourth-year apprentice. I’m learning every day and doing high-end roofing on luxury homes. I love it.”
