"Alex is an extremely efficient consultant and never needs to be chased, and he has a rare gift which is frequently lacking in many Engineers . . .a problem solving mindset rather than a problem highlighting mind. Alex played a lead role in a recent successful Planning Public Inquiry, helping to resolve infrastructure concerns and most importantly, aiding a massive reduction in the Section 106 contributions that were being sought from the scheme."

Tyler Shere

Apprentice Technician

I have lived in Devon my entire life playing football, fishing and mountain biking, although not being able to do much of that during my year at college where I studied for a Level 2 (transition course).

Originally I was going to transition onto the T-level that Exeter College offer, but after being offered to do work experience and then offered a full time apprenticeship I knew it was the right road for me.

A lot of my life has been surrounded with football which is why I am so keen to be able to get back into it with the apprenticeship which gives me my free time on the weekends. At the moment I can happily say I’m an Arsenal fan and I cannot wait for the season ahead, hopefully challenging for the title.
