Have you been considering a trade career? We are looking for an enthusiastic individual to join our Somerset team as an Apprentice Electrician.
This year we are looking to award a successful candidate an Electrical apprenticeship within our team in Somerset You will live within Somerset to ensure that you can share travel with members of the team.
You’ll consider yourself to have a ‘can do’ approach, you’ll enjoy problem solving and you’ll be happy to start building towards your portfolio from the beginning of your apprenticeship.
We’ll be supporting you to work towards a Level 3 apprenticeship in Installation & Maintenance, which will hopefully lead to a very successful career. The apprenticeship will take approximately 48 months to complete.
During the week you’ll work with your team out and about in the community in customer’s homes and sometimes empty properties to complete electrical based tasks. Initially you will work with your mentor to learn the electrical skills required for the role, whilst completing technical learning with our training provider and as you become more confident you’ll be completing tasks yourself.
From the beginning of your apprenticeship you will be responsible for completing all works related to the qualification, this is key to ensure you remain on track. You’ll be taking pictures of work you have completed to build your portfolio and you’ll accurately record your ‘off the job training’ to ensure that the records are up to date.
You’ll be excited about becoming an apprentice and you’ll want to really work hard for it.
You will need to have passes in Maths and English GCSE of Grades 4/C and above and you’ll be happy to work towards gaining your driving licence during your apprenticeship if you don’t have it already.
It doesn’t matter if you haven’t attended college to complete any trade studies as yet as we’ll work with our training provider to ensure you receive all the training you need.
It is planned that you will attend either Trowbridge College or Bridgwater and Taunton College depending on where you live, to complete your apprenticeship and we’ll make arrangements for your college place as part of your recruitment.
