Jarvis, aged 20, completed his PEO and is currently working towards his SVQ Level 3. Jarvis joined EnerMech in 2009 and has worked in Equipment Rental, Hose & Fittings, Machine Shop, Electrical department and has chosen to specialise in Rigging & Lifting. Jarvis received a Certificate of Commendation as part of the Apprentice of the Year 2012 Award.
In Jarvis's words:
“I enjoy my apprenticeship because there are so many opportunities to learn so many skills and we have the chance to get as much training as possible for the right job, and everyone is friendly.
I see myself getting through my college work and becoming the best engineer I can be because I work hard at college and apply myself at work.
I would like to become an on and offsite engineer and be able to work on installations with the lifting gear.
The lifting workshop became my favourite workshop because there is always work to do and there is more than enough to learn about and everyone is so helpful and friendly. I like all the subjects at college because they all teach you how to do your job.
I would tell new apprentices to stick in, apply yourself to the best of your ability because EnerMech is a big worldwide company and there is plenty of opportunities to go to different parts of the world”.
