One of the largest landlords in North East England has welcomed eight new apprentices from across the Tees Valley.

According to Housing News:

The plumbing and joinery apprentices are to shadow a member of the company’s property services division during their time with the company, while also attending Middlesbrough College on a day-release basis.

Thirteen Group now has a total of 22 apprentices training with its property services division.

Mark Robson, head of building services at Thirteen Group, praised the skill of their apprentices and said: “[An apprenticeship] gives a young person the chance to forge a career in an industry which interests them — it really is a win-win situation.”
