Hear from one of our previous fast-track engineers, Jake:


“My fast-track BEMS engineering course was hands on from day one. Supporting projects and maintenance tasks, I worked alongside experienced engineers who were always willing to spend time with me and share their knowledge.

The fast-paced environment kept things interesting and pushed me to develop quickly. Helping me become self-sufficient faster than anticipated.

Coming from a builder background, the tailored training sessions helped me build an understanding of BMS systems. And shadowing multiple teams gave me a broad overview of how everything fits together.

The company invests in your development and it’s clear to see that everyone wants you to succeed and grow. Regular check-ins and feedback meant I always knew where I stood and what to improve.

The culture is positive and ‘team’ focused, which was encouraging. Especially for someone new to the industry”.
