Redcar MP welcomes new Teesside apprentice scheme

The Redcar MP Ian Swales has welcomed the introduction of a new apprentice and 'fast track' graduate scheme at the Sembcorp site on Teesside.

Vince Cable, the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation and Skills, is visiting the Wilton International plant today to launch the new scheme.

"I look forward to seeing this contract get up and running.

"There has been a lot of hard work from the team at Sembcorp to get to this point and it is an exciting project.

"Apprenticeships are vital for this area, and I am delighted that the Government has backed a further 300 in the Tees Valley for a range of people to access.

"By up-skilling our workforce, we provide young people with the ability to compete in the workplace and increase the amount of people who want to remain living and working on Teesside."

– Ian Swales, MP
