We’ll soon be approaching the New Year where most people as their counting down until the fireworks are reconsidering their career options, such as wanting to either continue working 5 days a week or go to part-time hours, thinking of moving into Freelancing, or a change of career altogether. So, what about trade? Are you thinking about scaffolding as a career?
Yes, scaffolding is hard work, but it can be really rewarding. You will work as part of a team mostly, and there is usually some great camaraderie and banter between scaffolders onsite. Once you have experience there are opportunities to move into supervisory and management roles, which are estimating, training or working in scaffolding design – You could also travel overseas and seek opportunities there.
Scaffolding and the construction industry are very passionate about their work, and it probably won’t be the career for you if you are afraid of heights, and aren’t prepared to work outdoors in England’s most unpredictable weather – I mean, have you seen the weather in the West Midlands and Warwickshire area? We see more showers, than what grubby teenagers have.
But still, if you do have the passion and are dedicated to get working on scaffolding no matter the weather or time of day, well this is the industry for you. In fact, here’s a bit of background on Ricki Grenfell, owner of RG Scaffolding-Solihull:
