“I previously studied Mechanical Engineering but switched to Civil Engineering and love it. I come to site in the morning and get involved with the ‘setting out’ – dealing with the sub-contractors and making sure all the manholes, drains and kerbs are being built in the right place, at the right height and at the right time.I’m thriving on the responsibility and having much more input into projects I’m working on.

“Northampton College has been amazing for me. Everyone there is very student-focused and everything is aimed at preparing the next generation of workers. I can definitely see myself staying at Balfour Beatty and working my hardest. I’m grateful for the opportunity and determined to make the most of it.”
