ASI Recruitment
A medical manufacturing company is seeking an Apprentice Orthotic Technician to join their Newcastle team. You will receive training in the manufacture of medical devices and upon successful completion of the apprenticeship, you will be offered a permanent role. The ideal candidate will have GCSE Grade 4 in English & maths, manual dexterity, and good communication skills. Benefits include a competitive apprenticeship wage and a company pension scheme.
Peacock Medical Group manufactures orthoses and custom-made footwear from their Newcastle upon Tyne facility to clients across the UK. They are a key partner across several NHS Trusts, with service contracts spread from the South Coast to the Northeast.
They are currently recruiting for Apprentice Orthotic Technicians to join their Newcastle Manufacturing team (located close to Walkergate Metro & Benfield Road bus routes).
In this role you will be trained in the manufacture of hand‑made medical devices, such as insoles, shoes, braces, and adaptions for wheelchairs.
This is not a 'typical' manufacturing environment, and you will be expected to learn several traditional craft‑based techniques using hand tools, so manual dexterity is preferable.
You will be enrolled onto an 8 month Apprenticeship programme with Gem Partnership whose trainers will assist you in completing 187 hours of training onsite at Peacock Medical Group. Upon successful completion of the apprenticeship qualification, you will be offered a permanent role with Peacock's.
This vacancy is being advertised on behalf of Gem Partnership Ltd who are operating as an employment business.
