Eamonn Conaghan - Carpentry Apprentice

Eamonn Joined Build Team as their first apprentice in April 2009. He has always had an interest in building and construction, and after finishing school thought the best way of learning the trade was a hands on apprentice position. Eamonn has worked on a variety of projects and in various roles from carpentry to decoration. As well as the practical side of the apprenticeship, Eamonn is also studying the theory at Lewisham Collage to gain a City and Guilds qualification in Carpentry.
