Gas Engineer Demand ?

[Jiffry]

Hi All

I wanted to follow a full itme course to be Gas Engineer if there is a job opportunity and a very good demand. Can anyone advise me on it . I do not want to invest around 6000 pounds if there is no demand for this sector.

Thanks

There's no demand and no one will employ you.

As you will see, opinion is divided on career-changers, but the one thing just about everyone agrees is - times are tough and there are too many skilled blokes chasing too little work.

plenty of demand in the winter and not much in the summer, my company has been looking for someone for a month, hard to find a good gsr engineer in the winter

colleges over state the demand, particularly for plumbers, that said once your gsr and experianced in repairing boilers youll be able to find work

I work for one of the large energy companies which offer boiler maintenance, wage is pretty good, lots of overtime in the winter, 4 days a week from April til October, pretty spot on really. Although you can't do hobbles (not that I would :wink5🙂
