Celebrating National Manufacturing Day

To celebrate National Manufacturing Day in September, we teamed up with Leeds City College to showcase the exciting opportunities that a career in manufacturing has to offer.

To mark the occasion, we welcomed a cohort of students from Leeds City College to visit us at Bensons. The visit included a behind-the-scenes tour of Bensons, providing a first-hand experience of the processes, technology, and teamwork that drives our operations. It opened up conversation about our role as manufacturers and what we have to offer. Our very own apprentices, Dan, Ellis, and Ethan, also contributed by sharing their experience and advice with the students.

The main aim of the day was to provide an insight into manufacturing careers. While traditional hands-on roles remain an important part of the industry, we wanted to emphasise that there is also a much wider range of opportunities available, all suited to a variety of interests and skill sets.

By teaming up with places like Leeds City College, we hope to inspire more young people to consider a future in manufacturing, helping to close the skill-gap and ensure that the industry continues to grow and evolve.
