British Gas Open Day Careers Event

June 12, 2025

DYW LED was delighted to see another one of our High Schools take up the amazing offfer from the British Gas Centrica teams, to understand the careers & pathways opportunities attached to the businesses at the Uddingston site. ✅

What started with an idea to engage with more schools and the simple goal of creating a space that gives non-customer-facing teams, pupils, and external visitors a real, hands-on understanding of what it’s like to work on heating systems in the field, has now led to an engaged workforce, able to deliver bespoke events for local schools. ✅

Thanks to the incredible support of Karim Awadia and Haydn Hughes, and engineers like Paul Martin in the operation; several of our DYW LED High Schools and now been able to see this idea in full flow with many supporting departments. ✅

It’s been a real team effort, and thanks to the HR, Recruitment, Contact Centre, Smart Metering, White Goods and Electrical Support teams, for pulling together events the business can be proud of pioneering. ✅

Looking forward to seeing how the space gets used by more DYW LED schools and hearing the feedback from todays event with 30 St John Ogilvie High School pupils. Reach out to the team to get involved! ✅
