Over 150 people attended the event with more than 30 companies represented.

Atlantic have worked closely with the AMRC for a number of years and as a company have always been committed to employing young people in the industry and investing in the next generation of British engineering.

We firmly believe in the value of apprenticeships. Mike Young, Evan Biggin, Laurence Ward and Riegan Woodhead-Tinsley are testament to this and all have become well-regarded, key members of the Operations team, developing their skills in-house alongside their college education.
