• Whichever apprenticeship you apply for, you’ll get a breadth of experience and development. Because there’s a lot going on to deliver for today’s customers and build products for tomorrow’s customers.

Variety and travel for engineering apprentices

• If you join one of our engineering apprenticeship programmes and want to travel, then you’ll have the chance to see just how our equipment is used. It’s entirely optional.
• Our technical apprentices have powered the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, seen US presidents at COP26 in Glasgow, and thrilled the crowds at the Goodwood Festival of Speed.
• “You’ve built it, your name is on it, and now you get to run it – from doing the fuelling to setting up the distribution panels. Everything from the engine down to the phone charger.”
