Listen "S1: Ep3 - The Skill of the Trade"
Episode Synopsis
The Sisk Training Centre, also known as The Joinery, was founded many decades ago by John G Sisk, born out of his love of timber and stone, and a deep appreciation for the craftsmanship involved in working with these materials. Even after John G retired he would often visit the workshop. In this episode of Inside Sisk, Christine and Hal Sisk talk about John G’s passion for natural materials. We also meet two Sisk team members who have spent a lifetime working with timber and have become highly skilled masters of their trade - Declan O’Donovan, Construction Manager at Sisk, and Ronan Murphy, Manager of the Training Centre. Finally, we hear from two of the next generation of Sisk craftspeople - Eddie Mongey and Owen Grocott, both of whom are currently apprentices in the Training Centre.
