We have appointed Jadon Dooley as Apprentice Project Manager in the North West.
Jadon returns to the Salford-based team after a successful placement with the business as part of his T-Level studies at Oldham College earlier this year.
In October 2023, we announced a grassroots partnership with Oldham College to provide T-level students with a wide range of experiences and career paths within the regeneration sector.
The first of its kind, the partnership provides students studying Design, Surveying and Planning the opportunity to work with us and other partner organisations in the built environment.
In January 2025 Jadon Dooley arrived as part of the latest pair of T-Level students to benefit from the partnership.
T-Level student Jadon undertook a work placement as part of our partnership with Oldham College
Over the course of several months, Jadon worked alongside our design and professional consultant teams and their partners on several projects. This included the £450m transformation of his hometown, Oldham, where we’re are working in partnership with Oldham Council to deliver a vision for a new, thriving, town centre.
During this period Jadon also undertook site visits, attended the UK’s Real Estate Investment and Infrastructure Forum (UKREIIF), and received extensive guidance and support from colleagues.
This included from those involved in Muse Academy, which was designed to create more opportunities for young people within the placemaking and regeneration industry.
After successfully completing his placement and studies at college, we’ve welcomed Jadon back in a new apprentice role.
He will balance this with his time at Salford University where he begins a course in Real Estate Development and Management in September.
Phil Marsden, Managing Director at Muse – North West, said:
“We are delighted to welcome Jadon back to the team. During his time with us he showed a real desire and passion for high-quality placemaking and how our work can make a positive difference in communities.
“As we move forward Jadon’s insight will make an important contribution to the progress of our Oldham project, and we hope that our decades of experience will support his own development.”
Cllr Arooj Shah, Leader of Oldham Council, said:
Mark Barratt, Work Placements Co-ordinator for T Level Construction at Oldham College, said:
“At Oldham College we pride ourselves on giving our T Level students excellent real world employment experiences that allow them to develop their skills, expertise, and understanding of industries. We’ve been delighted to work with Muse to deliver a number of unique opportunities for young people.
Jadon Dooley, Apprentice Project Manager at Muse, said:
“It’s a huge honour to be returning to Muse as Apprentice Project Manager. My time spent with the team was hugely beneficial, not only aiding in my development but giving me the confidence and enthusiasm to want to pursue a career in the regeneration industry.
