Looking For A Career In Construction? Linden Leads The Way In Huntingdon
11 Feb 2015

From bricklaying and joinery to engineering and archaeology – the world of construction is exciting as it is diverse.

And for anyone aspiring to a career in the construction industry, house builder Linden Homes Midlands – which has its head office in Peterborough - is hosting a special open weekend next month, which gives a comprehensive and informative insight into what to expect.

The Open Doors weekend on March 6-7 is part of a nationwide construction initiative, and will be held locally at the Saxon Gardens development in California Road, Huntingdon on the Friday.

Local colleges are being invited to attend the event, which will be split into informal sessions looking at various aspects of construction and Linden Homes’ contribution to the new homes market locally.

Those attending can also enjoy a tour of the development, find out about aspects of health and safety and learn more about Linden’s parent house building company Galliford Try.

Experts will be on hand to give advice and guidance to visitors and those looking seriously to pursue a career in construction.

Linden Homes production manager Graham Atkins, who actively involved in setting up the Open Doors weekend at Saxon Gardens said: “Open Doors offers a unique opportunity to have a behind the scenes look at major construction sites across the country and the wonderful range of things it covers.”

“We are delighted to be opening the doors to our very popular development in Huntingdon to showcase various elements of the construction word, giving visitors the chance to see and meet the people who make it all happen. So whether you are thinking about work and a career, or just curious to see what goes on behind those big hoardings, Open Doors will have something for you.”

The sessions will take place on Friday 6th March from 9.30-11am / 11.30am-1pm / 2.20-3.50pm.
