Since starting my apprenticeship I have learnt how to remove and install new lighting in an active environment, I have also learnt the basics of first and second fixing.
- What has been your proudest moment so far?
My proudest moment is when I wire something by myself start to end and turn it on to see it work.

Over my next year at BJF Group I’ll be gaining more experience, at different sites and learning more new things.
