I'd always aspired to be a technician working for a well-respected and progressive company. When I attended the initial interview, I was taken aback by how incredibly welcoming the staff were and this made me feel confident that an apprenticeship at Thomas Hardie was the perfect career choice for me."

I like meeting new people and learning about them, what they're into and who they are, what motivates them and if I can help. It's something I gained from my previous employer and I think it'll help me when working with future customers.'

I'm very grateful for this opportunity and want to thank the sales team for always supporting and encouraging me. I want to develop and grow Vicki Buckley as a brand that people will want to work with and I'll only achieve this by establishing myself as an asset to the sales team.'

"With a job that's got this much to it, you can't learn it all straight away. I'm constantly learning and listening to understand the job as best I can and it's just a case of continuous learning with everything that I do.

Working with people face-to-face and having strong customer rapport is something I've always felt confident with and although this role involves me working with a more varied selection of customers, it's still a crucial aspect that needs to be done right.'
