SUPPORTING THE ARMED FORCES COVENANT.
We proudly stand with the Armed Forces community by signing the Armed Forces Covenant. This commitment reflects our unwavering support for those who serve our country. As a testament to our dedication, we have achieved the prestigious Bronze level in the Employer Recognition Scheme, closely aligned with the Armed Forces Covenant. This recognition underscores our efforts in providing opportunities and support to veterans and reservists within our workforce.
SHAPING THE NEXT GENERATION OF ENGINEERS.
We offer long-term opportunities through our apprenticeship programme. We aim to take on at least two apprentices each year and currently have three developing their careers with us.
Our apprentices gain real, hands-on experience across electrical, gas, and plumbing work (whichever discipline they choose), while learning how the building services industry operates in secure environments. With support from experienced engineers, they work on live projects, develop practical skills, and build the foundations for a rewarding and lasting career.
It’s more than a job — it’s an investment in their future, and ours.
DEVELOPMENT AND WELLBEING.
The development of our people is crucial to ensure the continued growth of our business. We have a clear route for progression for those with the ambition to succeed, regardless of role or level. We strive to be a supportive and uplifting workplace for all.
We offer an annual performance-related bonus – it’s our way of sharing success and reinforcing our culture of accountability and reward.
We back these commitments with real investment in safety, wellbeing, and learning. Download our Labour and Human Rights Report to find out more.
FORGING RELATIONSHIPS.
Our energetic and enthusiastic team at Ford Mainwaring are always keen to get involved in local engineering events with the aim to support the next generation of talent. Recently, one of our project managers, Tom Yorke spent time with the young engineering students of NSCG for our Engineering Skills Employer Event to find out more about offering extended work placements to T-Level Engineering students.
