We are proud to announce our acceptance as an Approved Apprenticeship Training Provider to deliver internal apprenticeships to upskill our Transport Department. Candidates will benefit from classroom-based learning, off-the-job training, and one-to-one coaching and mentoring from experienced Wren Tutors. Our Apprenticeships Coordinator, Emma Whitwood says: ‘This initiative is an excellent example of how we have taken an active role in addressing the skills shortage in the UK's logistics industry. With a growing demand for skilled workers in this sector, apprenticeships offer individuals the opportunity to gain practical experience while earning a salary, and Wren is helping to bridge that gap. We are also currently working with several external training providers offering new and existing staff apprenticeships. This will continue alongside delivering our own transport apprenticeships.’
