• How to keep customers, colleagues and the business safe

Support in your corner

We’ll back you all the way with:

• Blended learning: real projects + tutor‑led study

• A mentor, a manager and a buddy who’ll share their experience
• A network of colleagues who’ve got your back (and your career)

Important information

An additional requirement for the apprenticeship position is that you must currently possess a valid Right to Work in the UK. Your visa end date must extend beyond the duration of the apprenticeship programme, which will last up to two years.

Due to Home Office requirements regarding Skilled Workers, we’re unable to accept applications for visa sponsorship for our apprenticeship roles as the proposed salary for the role does not meet the minimum threshold – if this situation applies to you, please consider looking for other vacancies which may be more suitable.

Location

This apprenticeship is based in Bristol, Edinburgh and London and you will be expected to work from the local office throughout the programme. While our hybrid working policy requires office attendance at least two days per week (40% for full‑time colleagues), apprentices are expected to be in the office most days during the initial settling‑in period.

If your commute exceeds 1.5 hours, we strongly recommend relocating closer to the office to ensure consistent attendance in line with contractual and hybrid working expectations.

Salary

• You will join us on a fixed apprenticeship salary.
• Upon successful completion of the apprenticeship, you will be re‑graded, with your pay range consistent with the job family for your business area.
• A generous pension contribution of up to 15%
