Gemini Accident Repair Centres is thrilled to announce the official launch of the Mac Tools Apprentice Advantage Programme, marking a significant enhancement of our ongoing partnership with Mac Tools for the supply of high-quality toolboxes and tool kits to our apprentices.
Following the successful completion of the MacNIFICENT Toolbox Design Competition, we are proud to celebrate the talent and creativity of our apprentices. The competition drew to a close with the creation of 10 incredible toolboxes, each reflecting the dedication and skill of our participants. We are delighted to announce Rob Mank, an apprentice from Gemini Rotherham, as the winner. Rob’s exceptional talent and commitment to his design were truly outstanding, and as part of his prize, he has been gifted his winning toolbox to keep.
All competition participants received prizes, recognising their hard work and contribution. Additionally, the other custom-designed toolboxes have been donated to our insurer and industry partners, as well as to charity, raising funds for AutoRaise and the automotive charity Ben.
We extend our thanks to all those involved in the collaboration: The Mac Tools team, EMTEC and their dedicated staff, and everyone at Gemini Accident Repair Centres who has participated. This collaboration has been a resounding success and has significantly contributed to the launch of our partnership.
With the conclusion of the Toolbox Design Competition, we are excited to welcome Cohort 10 to our team and officially launch the Apprentice Advantage Programme. This programme will provide all new multi-skilled apprentices with bespoke toolboxes and tooling, tailored through our Mac Tools partnership, ensuring they have the best possible start to their careers with Gemini.
Dave Sargeant, Managing Director of Gemini ARC, commented on the launch, saying:
“We are incredibly proud of our apprentices and the partnership we have built with Mac Tools. This collaboration is a shared commitment to equipping the next generation of skilled technicians with the best tools and resources available. The Apprentice Advantage Programme is a key part of this partnership, enhancing our ability to support the growth and success of our apprentices.
The creativity and dedication shown in the Toolbox Design Competition have been truly inspiring, and we are excited to see how our new apprentices will benefit from this initiative.”
In addition to the Apprentice Advantage Programme, we are pleased to announce that all Gemini staff will now have access to exclusive discounts on Mac Tools and Mac Tools Hero brands, further enhancing our partnership and providing our team with the tools they need to succeed.
