HEANOR GATE
SPENCER ACADEMY
Phoenix Brickwork attended Heanor Gate Spencer Academy along with Construction Services
Mansfield to support Bowmer Kirkland in delivering a construction industry focused presentation to
year 11, 12 & 13 students for their careers immersion day.
The careers immersion day was a fantastic opportunity to discuss all pathways and opportunities
within the construction industry to young students.
Jamie Duerden said:
"Apprentices are crucial for the construction industry, as they bridge the widening skills gap by
providing a pipeline of new talent, ensuring experienced knowledge is passed on, and bringing
fresh perspectives, while also offering businesses a cost-effective way to train loyal, skilled workers
tailored to specific needs, boosting productivity and long-term growth. They offer an earn-whileyou-learn path, creating a dedicated workforce and bringing diversity, securing the industry's
future."
