**DESCRIPTION**

Automation engineering apprenticeship
Amazon is the perfect place to start your career in automation engineering 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 workon during the program.

- Classroom training and workshops hosted offsite
- Amazon’s on-the-job training program, delivered by our specialist RME team

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 periodsworking at one of our operations warehouses.

Years 2 and 3 will comprise block releasetraining at one of our training provider facilities where you will study for an HNC/D in controls engineering, and on-the-job training in a Fulfilment Centre among our team of technicians and engineers. In year 4, you will complete a substantial work-basedproject and attend Salford University on block release to achieve your Bachelor’s Degree in Controls and Automation Engineering.
