UK systems integrator dB Broadcast has added two new recruits to its permanent team. Mitchell Mead and George Edgerley join the company, initially as trainee wiremen, and following a planned training programme are expected to become installation technicians, working on a variety of client projects.
dB is one of the few SIs to employ and train its own wiring technicians, a tradition the company continued for more than 20 years. Wiring trainees are recruited from within the local community and the programme includes an initial period of bench work followed by one-to-one training alongside experienced staff, and finally supervised onsite work. In-house training is supplemented by more academic courses leading to recognised technical qualifications.
In the short term, Mead and Edgerley will travel around the UK as part of several teams working on a large project associated with the UK switchover to HD. They report to Production Manager, Paul Turner,
‘We are delighted to welcome George and Mitchell to the dB team as part of our continued recruitment of trainees,’ says Sales & Marketing Director, Tom Swan. ‘Their interpersonal skills and positive approach will be a great asset as we manage multiple large client projects.’
