Lakes College is proud to announce that Amentum, a global leader in advanced engineering and innovative technology solutions, has become a Gold Key Partner in the college’s Employer Pledge of Excellence. 

The pledge recognises organisations that are committed to supporting skills development, providing meaningful opportunities for learners, and inspiring the next generation of talent. 

Luke Richardson, Head of Social Value and STEM at Amentum, said: “This is a fantastic opportunity to offer meaningful placements, share real-world experiences, and engage with students who could be our future workforce. 

“Identifying talent early not only benefits us – it empowers students to develop professional behaviours, build networks across all levels of the business, and gain a true understanding of how a business operates. 

“We’re excited to support this initiative and help shape the next generation.” 

Amentum has an established relationship with Lakes College, and the signing of the pledge will strengthen this further through site visits, guest lectures, work placements and support for curriculum development. 

By formalising our relationship through the pledge, Amentum is strengthening its role in inspiring learners, offering pathways into rewarding careers, and ensuring that industry and education continue to work hand in hand.
