Birmingham, Birmingham, United Kingdom Amazon Flex Full time

Amazon apprenticeship schemes suit candidates with different backgrounds, qualifications and career aspirations; people who are excited to learn and want to start a career now – or possibly retrain in a new direction.

To be successful you will need to be committed to your own development and be prepared to make the most of the opportunities, hands on experience, and qualifications presented to you.

After graduating from your apprenticeship, you will be qualified to apply for a permanent role within our Reliability, Maintenance, and Engineering (RME) team.

Key job responsibilitiesMechatronics maintenance apprenticeship Amazon is the perfect place to start your career in mechatronics maintenance.

As one of the world's largest retail companies, we have an unrivalled range of equipment, technologies, and facilities, so there are a huge variety of projects you can work on during the program.

You will build your skills over a 48-month period - starting in September 2024, including:

  • Classroom training and workshops hosted offsite
  • Amazon's on-the-job training program, delivered by our specialist RME team
  • Mentorship from our RME engineers Alongside extensive development of your technical skills, you will also grow your abilities in crucial complementary areas, such as organisation, prioritisation, data analysis and problem-solving techniques, teamwork, communication, and presentation skills.
Year 1 is full-time residential (classroom) training at one of our training provider facilities.

As a result, you may be required to work away from home Monday to Friday each week during term time (costs will be supported by Amazon), combined with short periods working at one of our operations warehouses.

This will give you a thorough and detailed insight into the work of the RME team, as well as the basic skills necessary before working autonomously on our site equipment.

Subsequent years will comprise day or block release training at a specialist college where you will study for an HNC in Electronic & Electrical Engineering, and on-the-job training in a Fulfilment/Sortation Centre or Delivery Station among our team of technicians and engineers.

Not only will you receive invaluable learning, development, and professional experience, but you will also gain a number of externally recognised qualifications.

You will graduate from the apprenticeship and be able to apply for a role as an Amazon Multi-Skilled Maintenance Technician where we will continue your development, allowing you to grow within the business.
