Adam Haynes couldn’t get ahead in life. This is his story.
When Sureway Consultant Susie met Adam, she could tell that he had drive but his lack of work experience was holding him back in the small community of Stawell, VIC.
After completing some ground work with Adam, Susie connected him with Aaron at Suggy’s Automotive & Trailer Hire who was keen to provide an opportunity and pass on skills to a young person.
Adam jumped at the chance to undertake a Youth Jobs PaTH Internship, which allowed him the opportunity to not only show his skills to the employer, but gave him the chance to find out if the industry was really for him.
And it was! Adam has been with the business now for over 6 months after completing a PaTH Internship and is starting an Automotive Apprenticeship.
Having been in business for just over 12 months when they employed Adam, the employer said that expansion and employing locals was always the goal, and that the financial assistance provided by Sureway and Workforce Australia meant they could achieve that goal sooner. With an increased workforce, Suggy’s has moved to a bigger shed at a more central location and is expanding their range of services.
An all-round success story, Aaron is also helping Adam gain and pass his L’s.
Well done to Aaron, Adam and the whole Suggy’s team!
