Myfyriwr wedi'i recriwtio gan Read ar ôl llwyddiant profiad gwaith

Bu’r gŵr ifanc 18 oed yn gweithio gyda Read ar gampws newydd £20m y coleg ym Mangor yr haf hwn fel rhan o’i gwrs BTEC Lefel 3 mewn Adeiladu a’r Amgylchedd Adeiledig.

Mae bellach wedi cael ei gyflogi gan y cwmni o ogledd Cymru, a dywedodd fod y sgiliau a ddysgodd yng Ngholeg Menai wedi ei helpu i osod sylfeini ar gyfer gyrfa yn y maes adeiladu.

Meddai Brody: “Rydw i wedi meithrin llawer o sgiliau allweddol yn ystod fy amser yn y coleg yn astudio adeiladu a fydd yn fy helpu i ddatblygu fy uchelgais o ddod yn rheolwr safle yn y pen draw.

“Rwy’n wrth fy modd i fod yn rhan o Read Construction fel rheolwr safle dan hyfforddiant a chredaf fod hwn yn gyfle gwych i mi ddatblygu yn y diwydiant adeiladu a datblygu fy sgiliau ymhellach.”

Creodd Brody, o Landegfan ar Ynys Môn, argraff ar benaethiaid Read pan oedd ar leoliad profiad gwaith, wrth iddo ymgymryd â thasgau’n cynnwys mynychu cyfarfodydd rheoli, adolygu cynlluniau, a chynnal sganiau CAT, arolygon a gwiriadau diogelwch.

Dywedodd rheolwr y prosiect, Eilir Jones: “Mae wedi bod yn wych croesawu Brody yn ôl i’r safle fel aelod o dîm Read.

The 18-year-old worked with Read on the college’s new £20m Bangor campus this summer as part of his Level 3 BTEC in Construction and the Built Environment.

He has now been taken on by the North Wales-based company, and said the skills he learned at Coleg Menai have helped him as he lays down the foundations for a career in construction.

Brody said: "I believe I have gained many key skills from my time at college studying construction which helped grow my ambitions of eventually becoming a site manager.

“I am very excited to be a part of Read Construction as a trainee site manager and I believe this is a great opportunity for myself to grow in the construction industry and develop my skills further."

Brody, from Llandegfan on Anglesey, impressed Read bosses on his work experience placement, with his tasks including attending management meetings, reviewing plans, and carrying out CAT scans, surveys and safety checks.

Project manager Eilir Jones said: “It has been fantastic to welcome Brody back to site as a member of the Read team.

“Tra ar leoliad, dangosodd Brody frwdfrydedd mawr i ddysgu, ac mae’n parhau i ddangos yr un awydd fel rheolwr safle dan hyfforddiant. Rydyn ni'n edrych ymlaen at weld Brody yn datblygu dros gyfnod cynllun Tŷ Menai a phrosiectau eraill Read yn y dyfodol.”

Meddai Claire Taylor, arweinydd y rhaglen Adeiladu a’r Amgylchedd Adeiledig Lefel 3: "Rydyn ni'n gweithio gyda chyflogwyr lleol i helpu i ddarparu cyfleoedd profiad gwaith perthnasol i'n dysgwyr, ac mae hyn yn ei dro yn eu helpu i ddewis llwybr gyrfa.

"Mae cwrs Lefel 3 BTEC ym maes Adeiladu a’r Amgylchedd Adeiledig yn sylfaen ragorol ar gyfer gyrfaoedd amrywiol fel syrfewyr meintiau, penseiri, peirianwyr sifil, rheolwyr safle, swyddogion iechyd a diogelwch, prynwyr, syrfewyr adeiladu, peirianwyr gwasanaethau adeiladu, swyddogion rheoli adeiladu, cynllunwyr, technegwyr CAD, rheolwyr prosiect ac ati, i enwi dim ond ychydig.

"Mae ein dysgwyr yn cael cefnogaeth i symud ymlaen ar hyd y llwybr gyrfa maen nhw'n ei ddewis, pa un ai yw hynny'n golygu addysg uwch, prentisiaeth uwch neu gyflogaeth."

Mae Read yn ymgymryd â gwaith ar gampws Tŷ Menai newydd y coleg ym Mharc Menai, Bangor, ar hyn o bryd lle disgwylir i’r addysgu ddechrau o fis Medi 2024.
