As an integral part of the maintenance operation, Josh Burns, William Dougal and Owen Wilson are two and a half years in to their four year apprenticeship. With an emphasis on quality, health & safety and environmental sustainability, our apprentices learn on the job. They are developing valuable hands-on skills as well as the experience that comes with simply being in a professional workplace.

Owen comments: “Looking back at my time at Pharos, I have grown in confidence and ability and feel a great sense of purpose in my work.”.

Similarly, Josh says: “This apprenticeship has helped me develop vital skills and knowledge in an industry I’m interested in.”.

Will’s outlook is positive: “I’m excited for the remainder of my apprenticeship, and the opportunities that lie ahead.”.

Pharos’ Founder and CEO Phil Walker remarks: “Seeing Josh, Will, and Owen grow and develop their skills under our guidance is incredibly rewarding. Their journey from novices to skilled professionals is a testament to the impact that hands-on learning and mentorship have. Apprenticeships like theirs are crucial for the sustainability and innovation of our industry.”
