I began my apprenticeship with OBW Technologies in October of 2023. Since joining the team, I’ve received great support and everybody has been extremely helpful in showing me everything there is to know and answering any question I had about the gas detection industry.

Working at OBW Technologies, no two days are ever the same. Each day is spent doing something new. I spend some of my time travelling all over the country to new places and it’s great to get to work somewhere new every once in a while.

From time to time, I also assist in the workshop helping to service and calibrate portable gas detectors. This is valuable as it’s a great place to learn the basics of gas detection, along with the various gases. When I’m assisting in the workshop I also create quotes to send to customers for their units to be serviced or calibrated.  After quoting customers I can put through their orders and create shipments so that the units can be returned to them in a timely manner. The team in the workshop is very helpful, always willing to answer any questions I might have and to help me with any queries that come through.

Since starting I’ve gained great experience and knowledge on the gas detection industry through the help of everyone in the company. OBW Technologies is a great place to work and learn and I can’t wait to discover more and to continue working with all the great people at OBW .
