By offering work experience and potential internships we have been able to offer the young adults of the Creating Tomorrow College an opportunity to work in our Distribution Centre. Here they undertook jobs like picking and packing and those who have been there already were really good and loved working in the team!

Valuable Work Experience

We are so honoured as a company that we were able to offer them this opportunity.  Not only did we provide them with valuable work experience, but we also hosted practical sessions where the students had a chance to learn how our products function. For example, seeing how a contactor holding circuit works alongside learning how to operate a variety of sensors including ultrasonic, photoelectric, magnetic, and inductive sensors.

Kempston Controls could not be prouder to work alongside the Creating Tomorrow College and we hope to continue our partnership long into the future! We would also like to give a special mention to our warehouse staff for all their continued hard work and support for taking this new opportunity in their stride and offering their support to the young adults working with them.
