Hi Gents/Ladies,

I have recently completed my Initial gas training at able skills (who i must say were class) . I am now on to my portfolio work where i need to find a registered gas safe engineer or company to complete my on the job evidence work with.

My question is : does anybody know of any good companies, preferably large, who are willing to take me on?

I have already been accepted to work along side a local sole trader, but i would prefer to get the experience with a larger company.

Also what would you suggest? Do i take the plunge and go it alone once i am registered? Or would it be advisable to try and get a job with a company for the first year or so? I have been half a plumber for 2 years now, but realised that the gas was a very large string on my bow.

Thanks for your time

Luke

:welcome: Luke :)

Being offered any avenue is better than none at all IMO. A sole trader may well be more versatile than some of the "big boys" to be honest and may be able to offer you a greater variety of work experience!

welcome along luke. i would go with the chap that has offered you a placement otherwise you could be waiting a very long time for a large company to be honest.
