Paul Jones, our Apprentice Customer Service Assistant, has been working at BuilderScrap for three months now and so I have asked him to write a blog post about his time here. 

Over the past 3 months I have been working at BuilderScrap and already I have been away to Birmingham for an exhibition, been to several meetings and even experienced an Edmund McGee presentation first hand(!). I think the biggest challenge I have faced since joining the company is attending the exhibition and having to strike up a conversation about our company to strangers.  I feel by the end of the first day I began grasping at the technique and became much less worried about interacting with the public. The people within the company made me feel very relaxed and comfortable so I was never dreading coming to work as they were all very welcoming. I think thanks to their support I have been able to take on most jobs with minimum fuss, but if I ever needed help whilst doing the database or arranging event dates or pretty much anything there is always someone there ready to help out. I have really enjoyed my time here and hope to be working here for a while to come.

Paul is studying for a Level 3 NVQ in Customer Services and has just been successful in the nominations for the Wirral Business Apprentices all Star Awards, which we will be attending in the New Year.
