Mark Winsor, Talent & Development Manager at Lambert Smith Hampton, commented:

"Thank you to everyone involved in this award - I really wasn't expecting it! It is very rewarding to work with UCEM to recruit ever growing numbers of Apprentice Surveyors across our offices who are excited to begin a career in the industry. Apprenticeships are a great way to recruit diverse talent, and help develop their professional and personal skills from an early stage. We are committed to continuing to improve our Apprenticeships Scheme and look forward to working with UCEM to achieve this."

Chris McCartney, Human Resources Director at Lambert Smith Hampton, added:

"Mark’s enthusiasm and energy to support our apprenticeship programme has been widely recognised by the business, and our apprentices themselves, for a number of years. Behind the scenes, he has also been a strong advocate across the sector for early careers pathways more generally, working with UCEM and others to support a wide range of projects and engagement activities in this space. I am delighted to see Mark recognised by UCEM with this award."
