Speaking of his Year in Industry at Andrew Scott Ltd, Alex said:

My time with Andrew Scott Ltd has been both enjoyable and insightful, I have worked closely with site management teams and work forces whilst trying to absorb information from experienced personnel. I have been trusted with precise construction works and additional responsibility to develop my technical and practical abilities further. I would recommend a year in industry with Andrew Scott to anybody in a similar boat to me. I had previously never stepped foot on a construction site, yet I have progressed to helping with management of construction works as well as ensuring quality of construction is as per detail and specification.”
