With plans to create over 200 jobs in the regions they operate, Giganet has opened its full fibre Training Centre in Whiteley.
In the space of 10 months Giganet’s workforce has expanded from 25 to 139 employees and the upcoming launch of its apprentice programme will signal a steady stream of engineering recruits.
The new facility boasts a fully recreated home installation environment and will enable staff to learn in a replica of the working environment.
For Giganet’s customer-facing departments, the hands-on training helps better understand the customer’s journey to full fibre, in particular their dedicated customer service and provisioning teams.
CEO Jarlath Finnegan said: “The Training Centre is essential to our apprenticeship program and future hiring plans to give our staff a comprehensive understanding of the equipment we’re installing and the gigabit capability it provides - helping every employee, regardless of department or role, to understand the business and customer better.”
