Here's some additional things the apprentices had to say:

Kurt

I started at Rykneld Homes as a Business Admin Assistant. I have been here now for 6 months. I enjoy working for Rykneld Homes because every day is different, no two days are the same and I get to do a range of tasks.

My colleagues are also great to work with. By taking on this apprenticeship I have gained experience from being in the workplace and I will also gain a Level 3 Business and Administration qualification at the end of it.

I would definitely recommend the Rykneld Homes apprenticeship programme to anyone thinking of learning whilst they work. It’s a great company to work for, has a good reputation, and they are well known. They are also very supportive towards me completing my qualification.

Josh

I came in to Rykneld Homes at Pioneer House and asked if there were any vacancies available. I left my details and a couple of week later Rykneld Homes contacted me and told me about the apprenticeship plumbing vacancy, which was brilliant as I specifically wanted to do plumbing.

It’s a really good opportunity and Rykneld Homes support me in my work and I feel they will help me to achieve the level I can be at.

You can learn a wide range of skills and get to do on-the-job training in the real world. It’s a really nice environment to work in and the managers have been really helpful and supportive while helping me work towards my qualification.

Jaime

I began working for Rykneld Homes 7 months ago as an Admin Assistant in the Regeneration Team. I like the variety of work that I do and the amazing colleagues I work with, and I enjoy working in a relaxed, professional atmosphere.

From learning whilst working I have gained a greater understanding of social housing, I have also improved my IT skills.

The Rykneld Homes apprenticeship programme is great because I can learn whilst working and earning. If someone is coming straight from school it’s also good because it brings you straight into the workplace to gain hands on experience.
