Hi guys, i'm new to the forum and i'm hoping to get some advice from anyone who can help.
I am in the Royal Engineers and i have completed the nvq level 2 (or city and guilds 2) i am on a course at the moment gaining my gas quals and i finish the course in March. I will be leaving the army in approx 2 years and i need to get as much plumbing experience while i can before i am back on civi street.
I guess working as a plumbers mate is the best way forward. I am also happy to work for free as i am in full time work gaining the experience is more important than earning extra money.
Can anyone advise me on what steps to take in order to get my foot in the door?
I'm based in Kent so also if there is anyone in the area who can advise on who to approach or where to look it would be appreciated.
I'd be grateful for advice whether it's from a trainee or someone with 30 yrs experience.
Cheers
