PRESTON based card services and risk management firm Suresite has got youth on its side thanks to a new apprentice appointment.

The firm has implemented its first Government Apprenticeship, appointing 18 year old Nathan Dacre Pool to the Suresite marketing team.

Pool commented on his appointment: “University did not appeal to me and this programme was an ideal alternative. The apprenticeship combines practical experience with course assessments. I already feel part of the team and look forward to playing an important role within Suresite.”

Lynne Rawlinson, Suresite marketing manager said: “It’s imperative for any dynamic business to nurture young talent and in Nathan we have a highly competent student who is already proving his worth through his proficiency with social media in particular.

“Apprenticeships enable young people to work alongside experienced staff and learn the ins and outs of a profession with a more hands on approach. Nathan has already achieved distinctions at Level 3 BTEC in business and has a bright future ahead of him with Suresite.”

Nathan Dacre Pool joins Suresite at a time of expansion for the firm. Last year Suresite processed bank card transactions exceeding £2bn and the firm is looking to further expand its operations in the UK and Europe.
