Why enter?
Particularly within this industry, it takes a variety of skills to run our businesses and support our engineering teams. So, we are expanding TOTY (Trainee of the Year) to include other disciplines and embracing Heat Pumps as a sector, a rapidly growing part of our trade. Our new categories reflect this and we invite Sales Executives/Representatives, Heat Pump Engineers, Project Managers/Designers as well as Air-conditioning & Refrigeration Engineers alike to enter. Let’s celebrate the diversity within our sector.
To note; being a trainee does not mean you are just out of college and new to the trade.
You could be re-training for a new skill or having transferred from a totally different sector. If you have any questions on this please contact Hayley
