Complete FS has revealed the first appointment it has made under its new apprenticeship scheme with the arrival of Tayla Gurasz-Gordon.
The scheme is run in association with the government’s wider move to encourage apprenticeship training and Tayla will have the opportunity to learn about the business as well as having a full grounding in the underwriting of cases, general administration and working with brokers.
The apprenticeship lasts for one year and leads to an NVQ level 2.
Tony Salentino, Complete FS’s director, said the mortgage industry will benefit hugely from the wealth of untapped new young talent coming through, if it is prepared to invest the time and effort in offering meaningful training and a genuine map for the future.
He said: “We are delighted to welcome our first apprentice to Complete. I know the industry can offer a great career path to young people. It does require commitment from the company to support the training, but I feel that this is a fantastic way to bring enthusiastic new blood into our business and I am sure we shall benefit as much as Tayla.
“The opportunity for her, and the other apprentices we are intending to take on, is to receive a good grounding in the lending business and forge a clear career path in an industry, which is definitely on the rise.”
