During 2025, Clark Contracts has welcomed 11 new employees in a range of trainee and apprentice roles within their award-winning academy.
Since its foundation in 2006, Clark Contracts Academy has supported over 400 trainees and apprentices into the industry. The Academy currently has over 45 employees enrolled, the highest number in the company’s history.
This year the main contractor has welcomed a number of new Trade Apprentices, Office-based Apprentices, Trainee Quantity Surveyors and Trainee Site Managers.
They will each be supported by a dedicated mentor and are completing their studies through various Modern Apprenticeship, Graduate Apprenticeship, HNC and Honours Degree pathways.
Their training will involve a combination of on-the-job training, whilst completing formal qualifications, through attendance at colleges and universities including Heriot Watt, Edinburgh Napier and Glasgow Caledonian University’s, City of Glasgow College and West College Scotland.
Clark Contracts launched its trainee recruitment with annual Careers Evenings, held in Paisley and Edinburgh in March, which many of these new employees attended.
Gordon Cunningham, Managing Director, Clark Contracts said: “Supporting future talent and nurturing our existing team is vital to the continued growth and success of our business. We’re excited to welcome our newest trainees and apprentices into the Academy and look forward to seeing them develop their skills and grow within the company.”
