Q&A with Apprentice Engineer, Lucy from Bradley Manufacturing Ltd

What did you do before an Apprenticeship?

I started A-Levels in Psychology, Criminology, and Public Services. I decided to change my career path and joined Rochdale Training to do an Apprenticeship in Engineering in September 2023. I wanted something more hands-on and practical based.

Where do you work?

I work at Bradley Manufacturing in Oldham. They make lots of different engineered products for businesses across the UK. I chose my Apprenticeship at Bradley’s because I wanted to work at a company where I could learn valuable skills that would benefit my future career in Engineering.

What’s it like working in a team?

The team is great and always includes me and I have a lot of role models/mentors to help me through daily activities.

What are your goals for the future?

My goals for the future are to continue progressing in the Engineering sector to ensure a successful career for myself.
