The Welsh caravan manufacturer Fifth Wheel revealed they were looking for four new apprentices yesterday (December 15th).

Based in North Wales, Fifth Wheel have recently expanded their offices and manufacturing plant and need four apprentices to come on board.

In what is clearly a great opportunity for the successful young applicants in the current economic climate, the caravan makers are hoping to recruit three manufacturing apprentices and one sales apprentice.

Adrian Parry- Jones, sales director at Fifth Wheel, said: “We have a strong focus on investing into the local economy as we design, manufacture and sell our tourers and caravans from our head office here in North Wales.”

He added that the apprenticeships would provide four young people with hands-on experience as well as the chance to earn a wage at the same time.

The apprentices will spend four days a week at the 10,800 sq ft Fifth Wheel centre, with the fifth day spent studying for an NVQ qualification at Llandrillo College in Rhos-on-Sea.
