HF Attends Lanark Grammar School’s Annual Careers Convention
This week, HF’s Small Works Director, Chris Lees, spent Thursday evening engaging with students, parents and fellow local employers at Lanark Grammar School’s annual Careers Convention.
Held from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm, the event brought together a wide range of local businesses with a shared goal: to inspire future generations and showcase the diverse career opportunities available right on their doorstep in Lanark.
Throughout the evening, Chris was on hand to speak directly with pupils about what a career in the mechanical, electrical, and building services sector looks like. From discussing day-to-day life in our Small Works division to sharing insights into apprenticeships, technical training, and long-term career progression at HF, the event provided a valuable platform to connect with young people considering their next steps after school.
At HF, we firmly believe that investing in local talent and supporting our communities is vital to the future of our industry. Events like the Lanark Grammar School Careers Convention play a crucial role in bridging the gap between education and employment, giving students the chance to ask questions, explore different career paths, and see first hand what local companies have to offer.
A huge thank you to the staff and organisers at Lanark Grammar School for hosting such a well-attended and engaging evening, and to all the students who stopped by to speak with Chris. We look forward to continuing to support local schools and inspiring the next wave of industry talent.
