Zak El-bakali – Computer Numerical Control Machine Setter and Operator Apprentice 

Zak started as an apprentice at NMB in September 2019 after he applied for the apprenticeship via the government website. He wanted this apprenticeship as he wanted to gain experience working in the industry of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining.  

Zak said: “I’ve had the opportunity to gain qualifications and experience operating CNC machinery, all while training and getting paid.
