Chris’s story  

chris-parker-field-team-manager

What was your Apprenticeship in?

Initially I had a plumbing level 2 Apprenticeship and did an underfloor heating course as part of this. After doing this I went on to get my gas qualifications.  

 

How old were you during your Apprenticeship?

16

 

What is your role now?

I was a Service Engineer at Baxi for 7 years and then in 2022 I became a Field Team Manager. In this role I managed a team of up to 29 Service Engineers which has included up to 5 Apprentices - it’s been a pleasure to see my team grow and develop their skills to become excellent heating engineers.  

 

What made you choose an Apprenticeship over main stream education?

I went to college initially to do a sports course but realised that his way of learning was linked more to hands on role where I could earn and learn at the same time.  

 

How do you see your career progressing from here?  

As the business grows, I’m keen to also develop as a manager within the business. I enjoy seeing my team grow and develop and take time to reflect on their progress.  

 

Have you completed any further education course after your Apprenticeship?  

I have done a range of training courses whilst at Baxi covering all aspects of my job including gas safety and management.
