Savage Insights Podcast Episode 2 Now Live

We are excited to launch the second episode of our Savage Insights podcast, this time shining a spotlight on the increasingly important role of apprenticeships in talent development, education, and long-term career success.

Titled “Apprenticeships – Earn, Learn, Succeed,” this episode is hosted by our Managing Director Ronan Savage, who is joined by three expert guests:

• Margaret McNamee, Higher Level Apprenticeship Development Officer at Southern Regional College
• Elizabeth O’Connor, Director of People & Governance at MJM Marine
• Conor O’Hagan, Director at Hunter Savage

Together, they explore why apprenticeships are more than just an alternative to university — they’re a first-choice career route for many and a powerful solution for businesses investing in early-career talent.

Key discussion points include:
- Which sectors are leading the way in apprenticeship uptake
- The real-world benefits for both employers and apprentices
- How perceptions of apprenticeships are changing
- Why now is the time to invest in skills development

Whether you are an employer looking to grow your team or a jobseeker exploring new routes to success, this is a must-listen episode.
