James Finds his Trade

At the same time, ALCAN Fire Safety, who are contracted to provide fire safety services to the Association, approached our AIM Employment program to discuss opportunities for our job seekers. James had been looking for an apprenticeship or traineeship for a while but had not found the right role. Supported by one of our Employment Consultants, ALCAN Director, Ali, created a role for James that met the needs of the business and catered to James’ areas of interest. From day one, James has been made very welcome by Ali and his team, and he is enjoying his role as a Trades Assistant/Fire Equipment Servicing Technician. When he is not working, James spends his spare time on his hobbies and interests such as cars, tattoos and gaming. We wish James all the best in his new role! After gaining some work experience in the electrical and mechanical area in regional Western Australia, James wanted to find work in a trade in Perth.
