We are thrilled to announce that CPW has won Employer of the Year (medium category) in the CIBSE Young Engineers Awards. In addition, Design Engineer, Lewis Coleing, scooped second place in the Apprentice of the Year within the Degree (Level 5-7) category.

The annual CIBSE Young Engineers Awards celebrate the hard work and skills of graduates and apprentices in the industry, as well as promoting organisations that proactively champion young people in the building services sector.

The award ceremony took place on 11 October at the Royal Institute of British Architects in London, bringing together leading companies in the industry for an evening of celebration.

Andy Hill, Director at CPW said: “We are delighted to have achieved first and second place in two categories at the CIBSE Young Engineers Awards. It’s a real testament to the achievements of the team and demonstrates our commitment to continually investing in our young engineers. A special mention must go to Lewis as well as a rising star in the company.

“We’re proud to support young people in their professional goals within the building industry and will continue to invest in our training scheme to ensure that young engineers continue to receive the best training possible. ‘Our people are our power’ is one of the core values that runs throughout CPW, which is why the business commits to investing in developing engineers to ensure they reach their full potential.”

Commenting on his win, Lewis said: “I was so chuffed to be shortlisted in the first place, so to win second place in my category is the icing on the cake. I’m extremely grateful that CIBSE has recognised my work so far and would like to thank CPW and my family for all their support. It was fantastic to celebrate with great names in the industry during the awards evening.

“I joined CPW in 2016 as an Electrical Trainee Design Engineer and after this win I'm excited to keep moving forward in my career.”

Training is at the heart of CPW’s offer to young engineers, with a dedicated training team that review requirements for the business, CPD sessions offered by in-house technical experts and manufacturers to demonstrate industry good practice, client secondment opportunities, and trainee mentors.
