Congratulations to Luke Wright for successfully gaining full time employment whilst on the Future Jobs Fund scheme. Luke has been employed by an agency who works alongside Amazon.com, and is part of Amazon’s plan to expand across the country, he will be working in the distribution centre in Peterborough. Luke was working with the waste education team from the 2nd March 2010 and his last day was 9th July. Luke is pictured wearing the composting Claire suit!!
Luke’s line manager Kirsty Martin describes the composting Claire suit as “a fun part of the role that the waste education team undertake, usually the team have to play a part in an assembly at one of the schools or at a road show. Luke has managed to get out of wearing Claire as he is too tall and would frighten the children!! So we got him to wear it before he left!”
The impact he has made has been great, he has been very flexible in adapting to different working hours and conditions, as he has tried various roles within the team. He has completed recycling relays within schools and assemblies, been door knocking to educate the residents of Peterborough on waste and recycling. Been on road shows, completed admin duties and dealt with queries and complaints, he has also been bin loading and litter picking. This is just a few examples of the various roles he has completed within the 4 months time frame. I believe he has learnt a wide range of new skills, experience and confidence with people, which he will be able to adapt to progress further in his employment.
