GRADONARCHITECTURE are delighted to welcome Jamie Stoddart and Joel Bint to the team.

Currently studying T Levels at Middlesbrough College, they both join GRADONARCHITECTURE as part of their industry placements, giving them an opportunity to develop their skills and experience in the construction industry. The two year course and industry placements have been developed in collaboration with employers and businesses so that the content meets the needs of industry and prepares students for work, further training or study.

Tanja Smith OBE and Technical Director at GRADONARCHITECTURE who also chairs The Construction Route Plan for the Institute for Apprenticeships & Technical Education (IfATE) said;

“ At GRADONARCHITECTURE, we have always been committed to investing in people and in particular, in students from the communities in which we work. This has recently seen us create permanent positions for Graduate Architects following successful internships with us. This latest investment sees us collaborating with Middlesbrough College and their T Level programme and we look forward to nurturing both Jamie and Joel through their studies within the construction industry.”

Katharine Hawking, head of work experience and T Level industry placements at Middlesbrough College, said:

“We are delighted to work with GRADONARCHITECTURE who are prime example of an organisation who proactively invests in their future workforce. Opportunities like this provide a fantastic opportunity to put into practice the skills our students are developing on their T Level (Surveying and Design for construction and the Built Environment) course here at the College. Through their T Level placement, Jamie and Joel will be able to really integrate into the business, working on some exciting projects from start to finish – an invaluable experience!”
