At Blue Storage Group, we believe in investing in the future – not just with our storage solutions but by providing real-world work experience in Cardiff for students looking to develop their careers.
One of those students is Dylan, who has been excelling during his work placement with us as part of his logistics and operations course at Cardiff University.
Dylan has gained invaluable hands-on experience in the self storage industry, from learning about the customer journey to seeing first-hand what goes on behind the scenes to keep our sites running at the highest standards. He’s been involved in everything from managing existing sites to gaining insight into the development of new locations – a true deep dive into the operational side of self storage in Cardiff.
A Fresh Perspective & New Ideas 💡
Dylan hasn’t just been learning – he’s been contributing, too! With a fresh perspective, he’s provided insightful feedback on our processes and even shared ideas for our newly launched website, helping us enhance the experience for our customers.
His input has been invaluable, and we’re thrilled to be able to put some of his suggestions into action.
But it’s not all work! Dylan has also become part of the Blue Storage Group team culture, joining in on social events – including a legendary curry night at the famous Empire Balti on Albany Road.

The Power of Work Experience in Cardiff
At Blue Storage Group we’re proud to collaborate with Cardiff University, offering students meaningful work placements that provide industry experience and career development.
Rhiannon Parry, Work Experience Project Officer, has been instrumental in making this partnership happen. She shared:
“It’s fantastic to see students like Dylan thriving in a professional setting. Opportunities like this make a real difference to career development.”
A Future in Storage?


Dylan’s enthusiasm and hard work have not gone unnoticed. Rhiannon Berry, Storage Manager at blue self storage, shared her thoughts on having Dylan join the team:
“It’s been really refreshing welcoming Dylan into our office. It’s been great gaining the view of someone so enthusiastic and willing to learn. Dylan’s generation will be our customers of the future, so it’s important we learn too!”
Dylan himself has had a fantastic experience, saying:
“My time at Blue Storage Group has been amazing. The team has been so supportive, and I’ve learned so much about the industry.”
Who knows? Maybe we’ve just met a future storage professional!
