  • Exciting times at Yaskawa UK as we welcome our very first UK apprentice, Jack Dunn! 🎉 Jack joined us in September, but his journey with Yaskawa started last year when he came for a few days of work experience from school. He was immediately drawn to the world of robotics, finding the technology exciting and inspiring. Jack quickly asked about the possibility of an apprenticeship—and the timing was perfect! With our move to new premises, we were ready to invest in the next generation. Jack is now learning the ropes alongside our skilled team and getting hands-on with our advanced robot technology. Partnering with Sunderland College, we’re committed to building the skill base needed to drive the future of UK manufacturing, robotics, and automation. Welcome, Jack! Here’s to investing in the engineers of tomorrow. 🌟🤖 #YaskawaUK #Apprenticeship #FutureEngineers #Robotics #Automation #UKManufacturing #InvestingInYouth
