Having completed a Redrow apprenticeship, Rhys is now thriving in his construction career while also excelling in his passion for motocross racing - a balance made possible through our encouragement and sponsorship.
Rhys began his construction journey three years ago, drawn to the practical, hands-on nature of our apprenticeship program. “Working at Redrow has been incredibly enjoyable,” Rhys shares. “Being on site gave me real world experience that you just can’t get in college.” With a strong support system from colleagues and mentors, Rhys developed his skills and advanced his career, and is now working on major projects like the Vale Croft Woods development in Farnborough.
Outside of work, Rhys dedicates his weekends to motocross racing, training and competing in a sport that demands grit, focus, and determination. Recognising his passion and commitment, we stepped in to support Rhys, providing £1,500 toward his racing, including his bike and gear. This sponsorship has been instrumental in helping him pursue his motocross dreams alongside his professional aspirations.
“Redrow has been incredibly supportive, both on-site and beyond,” Rhys says. “Their investment in me has made it easier to balance my work with my passion, and I couldn’t be more grateful.”
Rhys hopes to continue advancing his career with us, aspiring to move into a management role, while, of course, still racing on the weekends. He encourages others to consider our apprenticeship program, which offers a supportive environment and invaluable opportunities for growth.
We are proud to empower young talent like Rhys, providing not just career development but also the freedom to pursue personal passions. By investing in our people, we create a workplace where ambition thrives - on and off the job.
