PAC now open to all apprentices!

Industry demand inspires PlaceMakers Apprentice Crew to welcome all apprentices to the club

As New Zealand’s largest trade supplier, PlaceMakers is committed to supporting those entering the building industry and the recent establishment of PAC – PlaceMakers Apprentice Crew – is testament to that promise.

Until now, PAC has been available to all carpentry apprentices around the country, whether they’re just starting out, in the middle of their apprenticeship, or about to graduate. However, following interest from industry associations and enquiries from non-carpentry apprentices to join, PlaceMakers is pleased to welcome them all to the club!

From 1 October, all building and construction apprentices can join PAC. Crew members have access to a range of perks, such as freebies, discounts, special offers, competitions and industry news. Members will also be invited to take part in educational and networking opportunities, which provide a great way to connect with other apprentices and share experiences and learnings – on or off site.

PAC members who are just about to qualify have access to the ‘Graduate Toolbox’, a great resource for those who eventually want to start their own business.

Furthermore, PlaceMakers have put together some great cash discount offers available to all its members, including much-needed hand tools and safety gear, as well as other product ranges in-store. For more information and to join PAC, apprentices can go to pac.placemakers.co.nz
