Dorset-based Superior Sealing Technology Ltd, a manufacturer of high-integrity O-rings and seals, has recruited a new apprentice.

Holly Dore will start at the company’s Wimborne facility in September; she had three days of work experience at
Superior last year and recently returned for three more days.

The company (www.superiorltd.com) has its own on-site apprenticeship academy — established in 2012 to address the skills shortages in the area.

This gives young people the chance to learn about engineering, science and manufacturing, and all apprentices are given the opportunity to study up to degree level.
