Outstanding Apprentice of the Year (Tech, Digital and Creative Industries)
The digital sector is booming in the West Midlands with developers, gamers and IT specialists cropping up throughout the region. This category welcomes applicants from across the digital sector including coding, content production, design, development, marketing, software engineering and other technical roles.
Last year's winner in this category, then called Digital and Creative Services, was Harry Chafer from high-performance clothing and workwear firm Pulsar 海角视频. He studied for a digital marketer apprenticeship and took over the running of a lot of the company's marketing activity such as website, social media and managing relationships with external parties.
