Newcastle based Gardiner Richardson appointed by Damar Training to support ambitions to grow apprenticeship numbers

Damar Training has appointed brand communications agency Gardiner Richardson to develop a communications strategy to support business growth to provide even more apprenticeships across the UK.

Damar training has created 1000s of jobs through apprenticeships over the last 44 years. The organisation has been a trailblazer in providing alternative and accessible routes into professions within sectors such as business support, legal and financial.

Jonathan Bourne, MD & Co-owner at Damar Training commented: “For over 40 years of delivering apprenticeships, we’ve been helping to challenge common misconceptions about the roles and industries that apprentices can benefit. Apprenticeships can be a valuable part of almost all teams and sectors, not just practical or hands-on roles.

“Our partnership with Gardiner Richardson and our new communications strategy will put us in a strong position to further help the business community realise the value of apprenticeships, as well as create even more new jobs and training opportunities.”

Jen Hallam, Business Development Director at Gardiner Richardson, added, “Our clients are adding value to society. In Damar’s case our work together to create and deliver a strategic communications campaign will help the team to deliver more apprenticeships and support more businesses with access to a wider pool of talent and training.”

Damar Training joins the Gardiner Richardson client roster which includes North-East based businesses such as Ringtons, Northumbrian Water, Egger, Northumbria University Osbit, Rayovac, as well as councils, local authorities and public health bodies across the North-East and UK.
