Logistics & Office

The JLcom Group office, logistics and training academy, supports the needs of communities providing FIVE primary key purposes.

The JL Academy is an educational “hands on” skilled based working centre that will bridge the gap between scholars (primary & secondary) students (college & universities) with industry and business.

The JL Academy will continue to work and expand their outreach with the local schools in the regions in which we serve. They believe early introduction to share the benefits of skill working is fundamental to industry, engagement and educating scholars highlights the opportunities that are available to them. The JL Academy approach shares knowledge and the benefits of what a career in skilled workforce can provide for their future.

JL Academy collaborate and engage with local colleges and universities to support the curriculum delivery of the institution, strengthening the educational experience with a hands-on approach. This enhances the students experience providing a full ‘one stop shop – turnkey’ with understanding to problem solving and solutions.

When we engage with our academic partners through college lectures we are told that the passion, insight and drive we deliver to students is valuable to their work and more importantly is seen as inspirational to the learner.   We want to build on this and provide a local presence in the region that boosts the energy and commitment we have as a business going forward.  The academy expansion would provide the benchmark on what we are looking to achieve around the country in local towns to support our business ethos and commitment to Industry.

The JL Academy is not just a training academy and logistics centre to support JL com Group business and workforce, but also provide innovative spaces, that can be used for all property and facility sector industries. It is an Academy of knowledge to share industry standards, best practice and current legislations, providing all year round training with workshops that address current regulations and legislations, with monthly accreditations for CPD seminars, workshops and brainstorming sessions to allow industry to share their experience to improve their knowledge, performance and output.

The Academy will have the capacity to provide mock up fault scenarios to allow problem solving and fault finding along with small installation works that can be instructed by our highly skilled engineers.
