We’re excited to announce that Rotamec will be featured at this year’s AEMT Conference, a key event exploring critical issues shaping the future of UK industry. The conference, scheduled for November 2024, will delve into topics such as the evolving political landscape, the importance of apprenticeships, innovations in predictive maintenance, pump repair technologies, and sustainability reporting. Alongside networking opportunities and a mini-exhibition, the event promises to deliver valuable insights for industry professionals.
Rotamec is honoured to have two representatives contributing to this insightful event:
Paul Korb – Group H&S, Compliance, and Sustainability Manager
Leading our contribution is Paul Korb, who will be speaking on The Value of Apprenticeships. As a pivotal figure in Rotamec’s Health & Safety, compliance, and sustainability initiatives, Paul has played a key role in shaping our training and apprenticeship programs. With a background in teaching (Cert Ed), Paul’s passion for educating the next generation of engineers makes him an ideal spokesperson for this topic.
Over the years, Paul has developed strong partnerships with educational institutions like Weston College, helping Rotamec become one of the first engineering companies to trial the T-Level Scheme. His work has included designing lesson plans and schemes to enhance apprentices’ learning journeys, which have been endorsed by Weston College. Paul’s efforts have earned him recognition, including awards and finalist positions for his contributions to both business and education sectors, particularly in training and apprenticeships.
Tom Blythe – Engineering Apprentice
Also taking the stage will be Tom Blythe, one of Rotamec’s brightest young engineers. Tom’s journey is a testament to the success of apprenticeship programs and their impact on businesses like ours. Starting in 2020 with a BTEC Level 3 Advanced Engineering Diploma at Weston College, Tom quickly impressed with his dedication and enthusiasm. After completing his course, Tom was promoted to a junior engineer position, spending time in the repair and fault diagnostic department. His passion led him to specialize in the rewind department, where he continues to refine his skills.
Tom’s achievements don’t stop there—he has completed the AEMT EX course and is one of the youngest engineers at Rotamec to take on this advanced training. Not only is he advancing his career, but Tom is also giving back by helping train work experience students, T-Level participants, and apprentices within the business. His story is an inspiring example of how apprenticeships can fuel both personal and professional growth in the engineering sector.
A Platform for Industry-Shaping Conversations
The AEMT Conference will bring together thought leaders, engineers, and industry experts to address the challenges and opportunities that UK industry faces today. Rotamec’s contributions, through Paul’s expertise and Tom’s personal journey, will highlight the essential role apprenticeships play in driving innovation, skill development, and business success.
