Brandon Read, IT assistant at Basingstoke-based NewVoiceMedia, was honoured as a top-performing apprentice at a House of Lords reception. 

Read was among 30 apprentices in attendance, selected from its crop of 12,000 across the country, in recognition of his contribution to NewVoiceMedia, a leading provider of cloud contact centre solutions.

He was offered a role at the company’s Basing View headquarters following a nine-month advanced apprenticeship in ‘IT, software, web & telecoms professionals’ after completing his training through Vision Workforce Skills, a subsidiary of the college group.

Graham Howe, managing director of Vision Workforce Skills, said: “The House of Lords was the perfect place to celebrate the successes and outstanding achievements of our top-performing apprentices, as well as say thank you to their employers for giving them such a wonderful opportunity.

“Brandon has made an enormous contribution to NewVoiceMedia and is deserving of this high-profile recognition.

“We hope this event and Brandon’s success inspires other young people and employers to consider the benefits that apprenticeships bring to individuals and businesses.”

Read commented: “The apprenticeship scheme offered a great mix of on-the-job training and classroom-based learning, and I was very pleased to be offered a role at NewVoiceMedia to start my career in the industry.”

Gary Lane, director of HR and recruitment at NewVoiceMedia, added: “Brandon has been such an asset to NewVoiceMedia, bringing lots of enthusiasm and fresh new ideas to his role. We are thrilled that he’s been formally recognised for his hard work and contribution to the business, in such an exciting way”.
