2024 Modern Apprenticeship: Science

4 weeks ago


Inverness, United Kingdom Scottish Water Full time

Together we are Trusted to Serve Scotland.
- Start your career with a splash.
- When you fill the kettle or turn on your shower, you probably don’t think about where that water came from. Or how it got to your house. Or whether it’s safe to drink. Or why it tastes so good.
- But we do. In fact, it’s all we think about.
- And we’re recruiting Scotland’s next generation of scientific specialists to join us this August.

What does a Scientific Services Modern Apprentice do?
- During this 5-year programme, you’ll be learning everything you need to know about how we provide our customers with high quality and safe drinking water, protecting public health and the environment in the process.
- You’ll be mainly working in our laboratories as part of an expert and experienced team who will support you to develop your skills and knowledge and achieve a nationally recognised qualification. This is your chance to learn as you earn, working with industry-leading teams to help deliver services that are essential to the daily lives of the people of Scotland.

What’s in it for you?
- You’ll challenge and stretch yourself. We’re here to help you make the most of your skills and abilities with first-class training, support, and a big investment in your development.
- You will qualify with an SVQ In Applied Sciences at SCQF Level 6, with day release available for you to complete an HND. And be supported through your qualification by trainers and assessors from our in-house Skills Academy.
- Earn as you learn. You’ll start on £20,696, with increases throughout your training as you hit key milestones. You’ll also be eligible for an annual bonus. And you get a really great pension.
- Job security. The vast majority of our apprentices choose to stay with us after they complete their programmes. And many people choose to spend their entire career with us
- Some go on to become team leaders or managers. Others focus on honing their technical expertise.
- You’ll be providing an essential service to Scotland and your local community and helping to protect our natural environment.
- And the best bit? You’ll be working as part of a friendly, close-knit team that really wants to see you succeed. And who make coming into work fun.

What you’ll need- You need to be at least 17 years old by 1st August 2024-
- A responsible attitude to learning and work is essential. You’ll be someone people can trust and rely on.-
- You’ll have five National 4 or 5s (or similar). Ideally, you’ll also have two Highers (or equivalent) or a relevant technical qualification or relevant technical experience (min of 1 year)-
- A driving licence would be useful - especially in some of our more remote locations - but we know that lessons and tests are expensive. If you haven’t had the chance to pass your test, we can provide support to help you get your licence during your first year with us.A note to the ladies
- Every year, more women are offered places on our apprenticeship programmes - and they’re thriving.
- So, to the ladies reading this, please don’t be deterred by stereotypes. Apprenticeships are for _everybody_. We’re looking for people who’d enjoy this kind of role. If that includes you, we absolutely want you to apply.
- We have a strong network of women (and men) across Scottish Water who will be there to support and encourage you every step of the way.

The not-so-small print
- There will be some fun (no, honestly) online assessment activity during late April. Interviews will happen during May. And we’re aiming to get all our new apprentices started on the 5 August.-
A few final things worth knowing

Let us know if there are any changes we can make to our recruitment process to help you perform at your best. Lots of our people have disabilities or neurodiverse conditions (including some of our recruiters). We're also aware that some people might be experiencing temporary challenges because of life events, like menopause. We’re very used to making adjustments, so please don’t be afraid to ask.

As part of our commitment to developing a flourishing Scotland, it’s important that all our employees are Scottish taxpayers. If you join us, your home address will need to be in Scotland. If you don’t already live here, you'll need to commit to moving here within your first three months.
