FLEETDRIVE
“ Offering work experience to local students helps us stay engaged with the community while supporting the next generation of tradies. It gives young people valuable, hands-on experience and helps them explore what a career in manufacturing could look like. For us, it’ s rewarding to be part of that early journey. It’ s also a great way to future-proof our workforce by connecting with potential apprentices.”
For Norweld, people development isn’ t a marketing gimmick, it’ s part of who we are and how we operate every day. Leaders take time to teach, apprentices help guide the next intake and students are treated as future tradespeople from the moment they walk through the door. That culture is what makes the program work.
The manufacturing industry will keep evolving and so will the skills we need. But one thing remains true: when you give young people a go, a supportive place to learn, ask questions and build confidence, you create a stronger future for the whole sector. Whether it’ s better pathways, fair wages or improving gender representation, Norweld is proud to play its part in shaping the next generation of Australian tradespeople.
