Greendale Construction, the chartered builders, has announced Samuel Wright, 20, has achieved a Distinction in his now completed carpentry apprenticeship, earning his NVQ Level 3 from Bournemouth & Poole College.

Samuel joined Greendale immediately after leaving St Aldhelm’s Academy in Poole, having previously spent two weeks doing work experience with the firm in 2019.

Having been mentored by Greendale’s senior site carpenter, Tim Wall, in 2023 Samuel was awarded a special recognition prize for his NVQ level 2 in Site Carpentry apprenticeship at Bournemouth and Poole College.

Maria Seabright, HR & Finance director, Greendale Construction, said: “Sam is a huge asset to Greendale, and has shown himself to be a talented, dedicated, and hard-working member of our team.

“Apprenticeships have always been of key importance to Greendale.  They help our young people learn a trade and develop their passion in an ever-growing industry.

“Bournemouth and Poole College are hugely supportive of the apprenticeship schemes and the young people who embark upon them.  Sam will be working across our Greendale sites on a number of exciting and challenging projects which will further enhance his skills and experience.”

Samuel Wright, said: “Greendale has been fantastically supportive in helping me embark upon, and progress in my career.

“Tim Wall has been a great mentor in this process, giving me all his knowledge and time. I couldn’t have done this without the help from Greendale and their team.”
