Upon successful completion of the Advanced Manufacturing Apprenticeship, the apprentice will be able to perform complex assembly/disassembly or modification tasks to industry standards such as IPC and ANSI-J on electronic or mechanical components, subassemblies and systems – encompassing new build, repairs, and prototype products.
The Level 3 Advanced Manufacturing Apprenticeship has a typical duration of 48 months, the first year of which is spent in our Skills Development Centre located in Portsmouth Naval Base. During the first 12 months of your programme, you will undertake a range of practical engineering activities that are supported by our dedicated Engineering Skills Coaches.
On successful completion of your initial engineering training, you will transition to your manufacturing areas at Broad Oak, Hilsea, Portsmouth, where you will continue to develop your knowledge, skills and behaviours.
Throughout your Apprenticeship, you will gain valuable experience working on military products, which will culminate in you completing your End Point Assessment.
The Advanced Manufacturing Apprentice must comply with statutory regulations and organisational safety requirements, and you will be trusted to work both independently and as part of a team. On completion of the Apprenticeship, you will be able to work with minimum supervision, taking responsibility for the quality and accuracy of the work that you undertake and will be proactive in finding solutions to problems and identifying areas to improve business processes.Training:An apprenticeship includes regular training with a college or other training organisation. At least 20% of your working hours will be spent training or studying.Training Outcome:Approximately 95% of apprentices choose to stay on with us. As a global business there are a world of opportunities – whether you decide to stay in the UK, or explore an overseas role.Employer Description:At BAE Systems, we provide some of the world’s most advanced, technology-led defence, aerospace and security solutions.

The Project Controls Degree Apprenticeship is a 5 year scheme that will expose you to different areas in the business across three world-class programmes, offering real life project controls experience that facilitates your learning and development.
As a Project Controls apprentice you will work towards ensuring that our submarine programmes deliver successfully and safely to time, cost and quality. As a Project Controller, you will have a keen eye for detail and will be responsible for critically analysing, interpreting and evaluating technical information in order to make recommendations to the project team to help drive and control the project.
Projects don't come more challenging, pioneering, and critical than ours. Controlling key aspects of a project is a critical element of how we manage our business and projects.
Our Project Controls apprentices are offered placements that enable you to be fully immersed in roles across our Project Controls community to gain a significant understanding and application of project controls and building your knowledge and skills in aspects such as:
Risk – Developing an understanding of the principles of risk management, including the considerations needed for mitigating risk, considering project risks and opportunities when integrating into cost and planning processes, undertaking quantitative and qualitative analysis of risk and leading risk reviews.
Estimating – Developing an understanding of the estimation process, preparing estimating frameworks and using this information to estimate project needs and requirements, as well as using an evidence based approach to estimating for estimate assurance, cost and risk analysis, uncertainties and contingencies.
Planning and Scheduling – Developing an understanding of planning and scheduling techniques, preparing and scheduling frameworks to enable recommendations on milestones and engineering schedules to be made, as well as using an evidence based approach to create credible, achievable control schedules, including assurance, risk analysis, assumptions and probabilities.
Data Modelling and Forecasting – Developing an understanding of both modelling and statistical analysis techniques in order to identify variations from the baseline, whilst assessing their impacts on the project and making informed recommendations to the influence the project.
Communications and Stakeholders skills – Communicate improvements to project delivery by challenging key stakeholders.Training:
