Full job description

Apprentice Engineering Technician

Chris Kennett Consulting Limited are a small company, based in the Ramsey (Cambridgeshire) area, working across the UK. We are leaders in the niche field of ‘Traffic Signal Engineering’ consultancy. We design traffic signal (traffic light) crossings, junctions and roundabouts. We test them, and are also involved in developing new techniques, technology and standards for traffic signals.

You would be working as part of a small team of five people. You will get opportunities to meet and work with colleagues, our clients and industry partners. You will also get invited to occasional industry events which the company may attend or sponsor.

This is a very small, friendly, and helpful industry. Being such a small industry, everyone has an opportunity to stand out. Chris Kennett Consulting Limited have run an Apprenticeship before and have been awarded “Apprentice Employer of the Year” in our category for 2025/26, by the college administering our previous Apprenticeship programme.

Job Description

We are looking for a person to take on simple daily tasks and to assist others undertaking more complex tasks. As you develop and gain experience, the work will change to reflect your growing skills and experience.

The work you would do involves (amongst other things):

Draw and produce designs using AutoCAD
Produce engineering documentation as part of the design process
Computer modelling with software and using simple maths
Checking, testing and working with traffic light systems
Studying towards a technical qualification (Civil Engineering, Level 3) and professional recognition

Working with specialist software and reference materials, you will learn to produce designs for pedestrian crossings and other simple sites. To accompany these designs, you will calculate timings and create engineering documentation. As you progress, you will assist with the design of junctions.

Time will be spent on-site, working with traffic lights. You will learn how to check that the traffic lights have been installed to the design, and you will test them to make sure they work effectively and safely. Throughout this process you will be learning how to work on site safely and will be expected to demonstrate this at all times. This work will involve travel, mostly within the east of England but occasionally further.

You will normally work a 40 hour week, however the hours each day will be flexible and depend on our client’s needs. The job will be split between office, college and on-site during the first three years, but after that there will opportunities to work differently. Time for training and studying will be provided at work, but you will be expected to study in your own time as well.

Person Specification

We are looking for a person who will push themselves to learn and is committed to developing themselves.

The person we are looking for is:

Creative
Motivated
Can focus on detail
Able to communicate effectively

You will be:

Prepared to work flexible times as required by our clients
Ready to work outside in all weather when needed
Committed to learn and work, including to complete the Apprenticeship Programme
Always keen to take on new tasks and learn new things

Basic numeracy and literacy to GCSE level is a minimum, but an A-Level qualification (or equivalent) would be useful. You don’t need to have studied a technical subject before, but study of Civil Engineering at Level 3 will be required as part of your development in the role.

Some work will take place in places that are hazardous, such as on live roads and construction sites. The outdoor work is not typically strenuous but involves prolonged periods of standing and walking, including over rough ground. Indoor work can involve extended periods working at a computer. You will be expected to travel independently to college, and as you progress, travel to site.

Key Skills:

Some basic skills will be expected to start with.

Competent reading, writing and numeracy to GCSE standard as a minimum
Computer literate to a similar standard

No previous experience is needed.

What we are offering:

We are offering a starting salary of between £21,700 and £24,000, depending on your specific circumstances and what you can offer in return. We expect this to increase yearly as you develop, and at least in line with inflation. You will receive 24 days leave, plus bank holidays.

As well as the salary, we will be providing in-house training and enrolment with Bedford Regional College to study Civil Engineering at Level 3 one day per week.

As a small business career and salary progression are based entirely on you, your progression on the apprenticeship, and your continuing development. We see this as an opportunity for you to start an exciting and challenging career, with no limit to how far you can take it.

Job Type: Full-time

Pay: £21,700.00-£24,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Flexitime
Sick pay

Ability to commute/relocate:

Huntingdon PE26 2LH: reliably commute or plan to relocate before starting work (required)
