As a DE&S apprentice, you’ll find real support to reach your potential - so you can become a leader in your field.

As part of our team, you'll benefit from plenty of routes for development, access to specialist training and funding for professional qualifications, and a c.27% employer pension contribution.

A range of apprenticeship opportunities have arisen within our forward-thinking Entry Talent Centre of Expertise here at DE&S, based at Bristol Abbey Wood.

DE&S are looking for talented, motivated and skilled apprentices to join our Project Delivery Apprenticeship Scheme and become our project delivery professionals of the future.

On successful completion of the scheme, you’ll be offered a permanent role in one of the Project Delivery sub-function specialisms such as Project Support, Risk Management, Planning and Scheduling, Estimating, Cost Engineering or Cost Controls.

Because of the classification of some of the information related to certain projects, some work-based placements may be open to Sole UK Nationals only.

Your duty station will be MoD Abbey Wood, Bristol, BS34 8JH and you will be required to attend site regularly as required by your placement and / or your scheme.
