PENFRO Consultancy Limited, a practice of Chartered Quantity Surveyors based in Pembroke Dock has released a further two apprenticeship opportunities for 2026.

To support the organic growth of the business which has projects starting at feasibility through to onsite construction in Pembrokeshire, Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion and Powys, Penfro Consultancy Limited is inviting applications for the role of Apprentice Quantity Surveyor and Apprentice Project Manager.

HR Director Andrea Davies said:

“As a locally established business, we want to ensure that we provide a platform of opportunities for talented and ambitious individuals to start and develop a career within the construction industry”.

“Over the last few years, we have successfully recruited three apprentices, Jade Wilson, Business Administrator who joined in 2022, with training by local provided PRP, together with Dylan Bowen and Iori Lewis who joined in 2024 as Apprentice Quantity Surveyors who attend the University of South Wales one day each week as part of the Degree Apprenticeship in Quantity Surveying and Commercial Management.

“We have been really pleased with how they have all settled into the business and continue to take on new challenges and increased responsibility as part of our project delivery teams.”

Jade Wilson said:

“I joined Penfro Consultancy Ltd with the Kickstart Scheme in 2022, which allowed me to gain experience in a professional environment. I then progressed on to my Level 2 Business Administration apprenticeship with PRP Training whilst still working in office and gaining valuable experience.

“Penfro Consultancy Ltd has been supportive of my development by providing guidance, flexibility and training which has allowed me to progress on to my Level 3 Business Administration with PRP training.

“I have also been allocated the role of Wellbeing Champion; this comes with additional responsibilities of organising our Wellbeing & Social activities. This opportunity has allowed me to grow both professionally and personally.”

Dylan Bowen said:

“Working at Penfro Consultancy alongside my university studies has been extremely beneficial to my academic and professional development.

“Gaining practical, industry-based experience that directly relates to my degree has improved my understanding of course content and allowed me to apply real world experience to my assessments, which has positively impacted my grades.

“Being surrounded by chartered professionals at Penfro Consultancy has also provided valuable guidance and support, helping me understand professional expectations and the standards required for high quality work. This combination of work and study has strengthened my technical skills, improved my confidence, and prepared me for a future career in quantity surveying.

Iori Lewis said:

“In the past 12 months of my apprenticeship at Penfro Consultancy, I have been involved in a wide range of projects, giving me increased responsibility across all stages of construction. I have contributed to cost estimating, project communication, valuation assessments and more, allowing me to develop confidence and accountability in my role.

“I have also experienced increased client exposure, which has improved my communication skills and helped me understand the important values of being a Quantity Surveyor and the vital role we play throughout a project. This has also given me greater insight into the ethos that Penfro Consultancy carries and applies in its work.

Managing Director Robert Davies added:

“With an increasing workload, we felt that now would be the right time to introduce the next generation of construction professionals into the business, working with our experienced team of Chartered and Senior Quantity Surveyors.

“We have a diverse range of projects that we are involved with and will provide extensive exposure into all elements of a construction project within the property, civil engineering, commercial retail, energy and renewable sectors which will be further enhanced with the Celtic Freeport status.
