Bellway Homes welcomes new apprentices and graduate

Junior Boyd-McKee, Alexandra Healy, and Ibrahim Mahmood

BELLWAY Homes has welcomed two new apprentices and a graduate to its Scotland west division in Hamilton.

Junior Boyd-McKee, from Carluke, joins as an apprentice civil engineer alongside Alexandra Healy, from Hamilton who has been appointed as an apprentice quantity surveyor.  Both will attend university remotely a day a week during their apprenticeship programme.

Meanwhile, Ibrahim Mahmood from Glasgow joins as a construction graduate, after he completed an honours degree in construction management at Glasgow Caledonia University.

Currently based at the company’s Ferry Grove development in Braehead, Ibrahim will undertake Bellway’s two-year graduate programme working across different departments to gain an insight into the business and complete different projects with other graduates.  

All three have been assigned a dedicated business mentor. Bellway is also a member of the Association of Apprentices, which it said will enable candidates to connect with a community of other apprentices across the UK, build networks, gain advice, and further training.

Andy Borland, construction director at Bellway Homes Ltd (Scotland), said, “It’s been well documented the desperate need to attract young talent into the industry and we’re delighted to have attracted Junior, Alexandra and Ibrahim who have a great enthusiasm to learn.

“Our sector offers a rewarding career and all three have a great opportunity to develop their skills.”
