At Wickes we are invested in empowering our colleagues to try new things and continuously develop their skills. Our apprenticeship and trainee schemes schemes provide great opportunities to do just that.
We are incredibly happy to announce that we have had our first successful trainee graduate in our Shipley store. Aadam Sanders-Mehmood has done an amazing job and has also been offered a permanent position with us!
I am really grateful for being given this opportunity. I really feel like part of the team. Everyone is great and very helpful. They also take time out to show and help me where I could improve and also point out where I have done good. The service I have received from Qube and Wickes is amazing. Coming into retail I was scared as I had never worked in retail before. But over time I was taught confidence in myself and to speak to customers.
by Aadam Sanders-MehmoodAadam is just the first in what we hope will be a successful and impactful programme that will help build skills in our local communities and continue to grow Wickes as a modern and forward focused business. We welcome him officially to Wickes and look forward to his continued progression!
