Welcome to our new Apprentice – Max Jones

We are really pleased to welcome our newest apprentice, Max Jones, to the Chamber team!

Max joins as a Business Administration Apprentice and will be primarily supporting the Chamber in its role as a delivery partner of Cheshire West & Chester Council’s UKSPF Business Support Programme. This involves organising data, interacting with local businesses and keeping all the Chamber’s records in check.

Max opted to take an apprenticeship after finishing his A-levels and has already embedded himself into the Chamber office.

Max explains: “For almost all my life I have studied and worked in Chester. I have been proactive in finding activities and roles to fulfil to benefit not only myself but also my peers. At GCSE I managed to come out with very good results in Maths, Science, Business, and English whilst being Head Boy of my school. I also participated in my school’s entry into the Young Enterprise competition where I took on the role of Project Manager.”

“My passion for business continued into A-Levels, where I have just recently achieved a Grade B. I knew I wanted to go along the apprenticeship route, and fortunately, an opening presented itself at the Chamber, where I now work as a Business Administrator Apprentice. I am using the experiences from my education, hobbies and living in a different country to succeed at the Chamber.”

Sarah Bailey, WCNW Chamber of Commerce CEO, said: “We are so pleased to welcome Max to the Chamber and he has already fit seamlessly into the team. The Chamber has long been a supporter of apprenticeships and we are delighted to be able to give Max this opportunity as he starts his career journey.” Max will be supporting at some upcoming Chamber events so be sure to say hello!
