Engineering Technician Trades Apprenticeship
Level: 3
On our 4-year Engineering Technician Trades Apprenticeship, you'll develop specialist engineering trade skills and gain hands-on experience maintaining the Royal Navy's fleet.
This is no ordinary engineering apprenticeship. Our engineers are at the forefront of maintaining the Royal Navy's fleet.
As an Engineering Technician, you'll contribute to the design, manufacture, installation, operation or maintenance of systems on ships, submarines and infrastructure.
This varied and exciting programme covers trades including Mechanical, Electrical, Fabrication, CNC Machining, Pipefitting and Support Engineering. Mechanical Fitting
You'll be involved in the installation, commissioning, maintenance and repair of a wide range of equipment including engines, pumps, valves and hydraulic equipment. You could even work on complex weapon systems and nuclear reactor systems.
Electrical Fitting
You'll learn how to use electrical engineering drawings and specifications to strip, rebuild, test and maintain a wide range of electrical equipment and machinery. You'll gain knowledge and practical skills that will enable you to install, connect and assist in the commission of complex electrical circuits which could see you work on projects such as warships and nuclear submarines. You will also help to maintain the vast network of cables and machinery that is essential to the daily running of the site.
You will manufacture a wide range of components and construct minor and major ship structures such as the hull, shell, deck, bulkheads, seats, frames and girders using a range of metals. You'll be trained in outfitting steelwork components, including the installation of doors, auxiliary seating, ladders, hatches and platforms. You will also learn to tack weld using different welding processes and will be trained to use thermal cutting equipment, power tools and metalworking machinery.
Welding
As well as learning all forms of welding, you'll also gain some fabrication skills to enable you to manufacture items or repair structural parts of the naval fleet. You could be involved in manufacturing components in our factory one day, repairing the shipside of a warship the next or working on a submarine to ensure its watertight integrity.
CNC Machining
You will learn the various processes involved in producing precision components, from raw material state through to testing the integrity of the finished item. These components will be manufactured on CNC Turning and Milling Machines. You will learn how to manufacture basic and complex components from Engineering Drawings and learn how to work with CAD/CAM software and 3D models to produce complex components.
Using a range of materials, from plastic to high-quality stainless steel used on submarine reactor systems, you'll be involved in the manufacture and installation of low and high pressure pipe systems such as water, air, hydraulics, steam and fuel. You'll learn a range of skills including how to interpret engineering drawings, how to fabricate pipes and pipe brazing. You can expect a varied workload working on ships, submarines as well as in the workshop and service systems within the dockyard.
Support Engineering
Your apprenticeship will cover a range of electrical, mechanical and construction skills. Working on a range of projects, you'll develop your engineering skills and knowledge with the scope to learn management techniques. Working closely with Senior Support Engineers and Production Managers, you'll make regular trips on-board the ships to ascertain work requirements.
Planning and documentation
Engineering mathematical and scientific principles
Interpreting engineering drawings and data
Your education/training:
This 4-year programme incorporates classroom learning plus on-the-job training. You'll study core engineering principles plus develop specialist skills in mechanical, electrical, fabrication, CNC machining or other fields.
Your whole first year will be spent at City College Plymouth learning the basics of engineering. In years 2 and 3 you will spend 1 day per week at college and 4 days per week in the dockyard at HM Naval Base Devonport.
Through rotations across departments, you'll grow a broad expertise in engineering and gain insight into our operations. The culmination of the apprenticeship is passing the required End Point Assessment, which gains you your nationally recognised apprenticeship certificate as a Level 3 Engineering Technician.
A minimum of 5 GCSEs (or equivalent) at grade C/4 or above, including English, Maths and a Science or Technology based subject.
Responsible approach to safety and quality assurance
Many of our early careers roles are subject to Security Clearance and Trade Control restrictions which mean that your place of birth, nationality, citizenship, or residency you hold or have held may impact which roles you are eligible for. For our early careers roles, you must be able to achieve BPSS (Baseline Security) and many of them require you to be eligible for full Security Clearance.
Personal development training and opportunities
Minimum 28 days holiday allowance including bank holidays
Competitive pension scheme
Employee share scheme
Flexible benefits including cycle to work scheme and employee shopping savings portal
You'll also have the chance to get involved in our STEM outreach activities and volunteering opportunities, which our apprentices find incredibly rewarding.
Your career development
You can expect real world encounters and exposure to exciting projects that will really help you navigate where you want to take your career.
Through a series of digital and face to face sessions, presented by wellbeing and performance experts and our external partners, we will equip you with the knowledge and tools you need to thrive and perform at your very best on your programme and beyond.
