Project Apprentice

During our apprenticeship you will:

Support with the management of stakeholders, taking account of their levels of influence and particular interests. Communicate with a variety of audiences and develop your ability to negotiate. Have an awareness of project budgets and build an understanding of planned and actual costs. Determine, control, and manage changes to the scope of the project, including assumptions, dependencies, and constraints. Be involved with monitoring the progress of projects. Identify and monitor project risk or opportunity, plan and implement responses to them, contribute to risk registers. Understand the resources required to successfully deliver a project, including colleagues, subcontractors, and how to manage these.

Training:

You will be supported through a structured in-house development programme and a range of virtual classroom-based workshops with Heart of England Training to gain an APM Project Management Qualification, and become eligible to be an Associate member of the Association for Project Management (APM).  

Throughout the duration of your apprenticeship, you will be appointed a workplace mentor to support you with your learning. 

Training Outcome:

We have lots of fantastic success stories from previous apprentices who have gone on to achieve industry-recognised qualifications through their apprenticeships and many of our past apprentices are still working within the business today or have gone onto having successful careers elsewhere.

Our workplace culture will allow you to pick up not only the knowledge and skills to be used in your future career but also experience working in a professional but relaxed environment that will give you the confidence to excel in your role and develop as a professional.

We truly believe that we put our people at the heart of everything we do, and you will have the job security and development opportunities that are rare in the current climate, so why not join us, and be a part of our continuing growth and success? With exciting future ambitions, we couldn’t think of a better time for you to join us!
