In recent years Alsco has committed to apprenticeships in our largest plants. These are a mixture of adult apprenticeships and also fantastic opportunities for younger people to learn a trade that will equip them for life.
“I previously worked in the Service team at Alsco in Auckland for 8 years, then an opportunity for a Trade Assistant with the Engineering team became available. I was like a moth to a flame, and now I am more than 3 years into an Engineering Apprenticeship with Alsco. Looking into the future is exciting. Technology is changing rapidly, and engineering is changing faster than ever. 3D printing is available now, so rather than wasting materials with machining operations such as milling and turning, the 3D printing will only use as much material that is required to produce the product. This is much more sustainable and will soon become a cost effective process that I would like learn about and utilise in the future.”
