**Role overview**:
Our all-new GRP/Composites Trainee programme provides a distinct opportunity to launch a unique career path, truly putting your stamp onto some of the most admired motoryachts on the globe. As a GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) Trainee, you will learn all of the desired skills and knowledge to support future high performance as a GRP Laminator or GRP Finisher, manufacturing the hulls, decks, superstructures, and assorted components for our award-winning fleet of motoryachts and superyachts.

You wont need any prior experience to be considered for this role, because we will teach you all the skills and knowledge youll need to become a respected member of a yacht build team.

**Training overview**:
The 24 month practical training programme will commence with a full time workshop course for 12 weeks. In the safety of a new training workshop, you and your course colleagues will learn
- How to work, behave, and dispose of waste in a safe manner around composites and hazardous chemicals
- How to effectively communicate with a range of colleagues to achieve perfection as a team

- How to identify, diagnose, and rectify defects in your work
- How to trim and shape components with air-powered tools

You won't stop there. Once your 12 week intensive workshop course is finished, you'll work with some of the best trades in the marine industry to develop your skills at work, recording evidence of your development for a further 9 months before you become ready for your final assessment at the end of your first year.

On completion of your training, you'll be rewarded with a nationally recognised Level 2 Lean Manufacturing qualification and the start of a lifetime opportunity in the marine sector.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who wants to change their path into a new career in the marine industry. No prior experience is necessary.

**What youll need to apply;**
- Grades. We are more interested in your can-do mind-set and commitment to learning a construction trade, than your grades or prior qualifications. Youll just need to take a very basic Maths and English test at your interview. Those that require development in this area will receive extra tuition to support your success.
- The availability to commence employment on the 13th May 2024 with no planned holiday or other absence for the first 12 weeks.
- The ambition to work in a fast paced yacht construction environment (note: this role is **not **based on the water)
- Some examples of your interest in construction or manufacturing. For example; work experience completed in this field, or personal interests.
- A career history that demonstrates commitment to your previous employers.
- Those that already hold an engineering qualification at level 2 or better (such as an engineering based apprenticeship or a degree in engineering, are not eligible for this programme. Please take a look at our regular roles here; Sunseeker | Careers at Sunseeker)

**What will you get in return;**

On completion of this 24 month training programme you will achieve a nationally recognised level 2 qualification and the opportunity to build a lifetime career in the marine industry.

We will provide you with a fully funded tool kit including your own power tools plus all the benefits youd expect from a large employer such as; Holiday pay, sick pay, overtime, safe working environment, canteen facilities, life assurance, regular reviews and full pay while in training with increments at week 12 and 26.
