Laundry chemical manufacturer, Christeyns, has recruited two new apprentices from the local area to join their progressive Apprenticeship Scheme, now in its fourth year.
Jordan Smith, 20, and Lauren Griffiths, 21, fought off strong competition to be selected for the two 2016 apprenticeship places at the Bradford-based manufacturer. Shortlisted as part of a group of 10 hopefuls, Jordan and Lauren took part in a selection day that involved interviews with the management team, numeracy and literacy tests, team activities and a factory tour.
The two apprentices joined Christeyns in August and have been undergoing inductions in various sections of the business, its working standards and health and safety. The two-year programme will involve spending a minimum of one month in each internal department including customer services, purchasing, production, distribution and transport.
As well as learning all about Christeyns in Bradford, the apprentices will also spend time at Alex Reid and other companies under the Christeyns umbrella.
Jordan and Lauren will study for a number of Level2 NVQ Diplomas including business administration, process improvement and manufacturing processes as well as undertaking forklift truck training courses.
