Mark Plumley (40) - Now A Plumber
Mark decided to add to large number of skills by training as a plumber with New Career Skills. Since completing his training he has already been getting plumbing work.
Plumley becomes a plumber
Mark, aged 40, has been running his own gardening, painting and decorating business for a few years. Mark decided to learn plumbing skills part-time through New Career Skills after hearing through others in the trade how good their Programmes are.
New Career Search was approached by a recruitment agency looking for plumbers to work on new building work as sub-contractors. When Mark was asked if he wished to quote he jumped at the opportunity. This led to a contract to do the plumbing on a new development of high-end luxury sea-view apartments on the south coast.
Mark impressed his new boss who said,
“Mark started fairly slowly but within a week had speeded up impressively. The quality of his work was first class”.
