New cohort of trainee quarry managers at CEMEX UK

CEMEX trainees

Three external and three internal candidates about to embark on six-week site rotation programme

A NEW cohort of trainees has started at CEMEX UK, bringing young people and new talent into the industry.

The six trainee quarry managers – three external candidates with engineering degrees and three internal candidates with relevant qualifications from within CEMEX – have completed their initial business familiarization programme and are about to start a six-week rotation programme visiting a key aggregates site each week.

 

Following the rotation programme the trainees will be based within a business region and will gain the relevant competencies for the quarrying industry.

Rob Doody, UK operations director with CEMEX Aggregates, said: ‘This is the first year we’ve recruited a group of trainees – in the past it has been on an ad-hoc basis as the business required additional people.

‘As an aging industry we need the knowledge and energy of new talent, bringing their ideas and enthusiasm to the job. I am delighted to welcome them to CEMEX.’

Meanwhile, three new LIDs (Leaders in Development) have also started on their career path with CEMEX. Recruited externally, Viktor Gaydor, Adam Poole, and Liam Hare were all keen to join a global business which offered a diverse development plan across the company.

Traditionally, graduate schemes offer placement within one part of a business. In contrast, under the CEMEX scheme, the three LIDs will experience all parts of the business, giving them a well-rounded ‘education’ in the world of CEMEX and the opportunity to see which business area they are most interested in.
