CASE STUDY
A young joiner has turned his
back on bad behaviour and
found his feet in a ‘real job’.
Ben Parkes, aged 17, is working as an
apprentice joiner at Taylor Made Joinery
and has a promising career ahead of him.
He added: “I enjoy being in a real job. I love
to be on construction sites and am learning
a lot with the support of PM Training.
“It’s helping me to save for driving lessons
and making my family proud of me.”

Joinery
If you enjoy working with wood
and want to put your practical
skills to good use, this could be an
ideal career for you. You’ll need
an eye for detail and the ability to
follow technical plans.

Craig Lloyd, at Taylor Made Services, said:
“Ben is progressing well and getting used
to working with other people on site.
His attitude is good and he is willing to
work and go that bit further, and I feel that
is where PM Training have prepared him
for the working world well. He is also keen
to work on his own on small jobs.”
