Position: Trainee Ground worker 

Experience: 2 years +

About Sam: 

Sam is another of the 3 Heath brothers that we are fortunate to have had on board, He joined us as a young trainee and in his time with us he has shown us huge loyalty and perseverance. He has been teamed with all of the above candidates and passed around to cover holidays and been a third man on the larger projects. He had not done this line of work before so it was a challenge for Sam, one that we often take for granted and despite being new to this industry he has always pushed forward learning new things and always giving his best. He now works in a 2 man team as the labourer and has shown massive growth here. As a young team member he takes and dishes out a lot of banter and always has a smile and is a pleasure to be around. It is very satisfying for us to see the growth of some one that knew nothing about the industry and then you would trust him on a site without question to always do the right thing so we thank Sam for showing this determination and respect. He has been trained in site health and safety and successfully installs Off main drainage systems week in week out and also learns new and old methods of drain repair.He is well mannered and always punctual. He is a credit to his family and the business. All the time Sam wants to be here and grow with us we are happy to have him.
