87 Kingstown Broadway,

At Park Gate we are very proud of our record in training and retaining apprentices and staff, some of whom have been with us over 30 years.
More than half of our employees have either trained or are training with us on nationally accredited apprenticeship programmes.
Please apply by email or telephone 01228 552000 for an application form.
Park Gate get a lot of applicants and can only appoint a very limited number. Our selection process involves rigorous assessment and interviews to allow us to select the best candidates.
Our minimum qualification requirements are A-C grades in maths, english, a science subject and a practical/technical subject. Candidates must also have passed the *JTL aptitude test. Those with an interest in engineering and hobbies or experience involving practical work often have an advantage.
Applications, which should be made in writing, are taken throughout the year with selection and interviews being held during June & July, successful candidates usually taking up posts around the end of August. We normally take 2 apprentices each year but this figure varies depending on our need and we are not committed to taking any number. First year apprentices are usually aged 16 to 18.
Our advice to those seeking apprenticeships is to apply to as many companies as possible to increase your chances of gaining a position.
JTL is the training organisation allied to JIB, the electrical contracting industry body responsible for training and grading electricians.
To find out more about the electrical apprenticeship programme and to take the JTL aptitude test, contact the local training advisor.

COVID-19
Important Announcement
Due to the outbreak of Coronavirus, we have taken the decision to temporarily scale down the business to protect workers and the public and to hopefully return the company to full operation when the crisis is over.
For the next few weeks, we will be operating with a reduced workforce. Our Company is a member of the AEMT (The Association of Electrical and Mechanical Trades). We are one of their members who provide breakdown repairs and the supply of replacement equipment to hospitals, pharmaceutical manufacturers, food manufacturers, agriculture, papermaking, gas, oil and nuclear and other essential businesses.
We work around the clock playing a crucial part in ensuring that power is generated, water is provided, oil is pumped and refined, factories are productive, and nuclear waste is processed.
Any critical failure of a motor, generator, pump, etc. can bring any of these processes to a standstill, AEMT members including Park Gate ensure that all plants run smoothly and that any breakdown does not become a crisis.
Most of our usual phone numbers and email addresses will be operating, though there may be some disruption to our services, and you may have to check at the office before waiting for replies and responses.
Please be assured that whilst attempting to provide these services we are doing all that we can to ensure that our staff stay safe by employing strict hygiene and social separation methods. This involves a number of staff working from home where they can.
We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause but at this time the safety of our staff, customers & suppliers is our biggest concern.
We ask all of our customers to take care and we hope to be back to normal as soon as possible.
