Shepherd Engineering Services (SES) has been named as preferred bidder on six education sector contracts, which could show to those wanting to take electrician training courses that qualified workers are always in high demand.
It was recently revealed that SES will supply a number of mechanical and electrical services to schools in Bradford, Leeds, Durham, South Tyneside and Gateshead, including air-conditioning, ventilation, sprinkler, fire alarm, heating and CCTV systems.
The contracts will be funded by the government's Building Schools for the Future (BSF) programme and Peter Lewis, chief operating officer for the firm, expressed his delight at being involved.
He said: "The Education sector is of great importance to us, so we’re delighted to have been awarded another six BSF schools."
SES is part of the Shepherd Group, which was formed in 1890, and today boasts an annual turnover of more than £130 million and a workforce of 700 people nationwide.
