Wakefield, United Kingdom Amazon UK Services Ltd. Full time

Find your Future with Amazon Apprenticeships

A day in the life

We prioritize health, safety, and well-being above all else; there is nothing more important. We strive to be industry leaders and raise the bar through innovation, continuous learning, and improvement. Our Safety vision is to establish and improve safe working operations and practices throughout the network and will achieve this by continuously developing and improving policies, and standard work.

As a Safety Specialist Apprentice at Amazon, you’ll gain a vast range of useful experiences and skills. You will work towards the Level 4 Process Lead Apprenticeship standard, as well as gaining Level 6 City and Guilds professional diploma in Occupational Health & Safety.

In this role, you will be based in one of our UK operations warehouses, where we store and process millions of items of inventory which are then shipped to customers all over the world. An operations warehouse is a very large, operationally busy environment, in which you may be required to work shifts, including nights and weekends.

You will build your skills over a 24-month period starting July 2023, which will help you develop both personally and professionally. Your apprenticeship learning will consist of:

- Classroom-based/virtual training to cover the academic component of the apprenticeship standard, delivered by our specialized apprenticeship training provider using a blended learning approach, examples of which include: Workplace Hazards, Core Principles of Safety, Personal injury liability and absence reduction, Self-leadership, Managing Projects, Essentials of Leadership, and LEAN Principles.
- On-the-job training within your assigned operations warehouse.
- Self-led online learning, portfolio creation, and reflective learning logs to demonstrate your understanding of a task or module.
- Mentoring from Amazon safety team members.

You will work alongside your site safety team to support with day-to day-tasks, learning how Amazon approaches safety and delivers for its customers. As you develop your skills, knowledge, and behaviours, you will become an integral part of the site team, delivering the highest quality of service to our internal and external customers and ensuring everyone consistently operates safely.

About the team

Amazon is the perfect place to enhance your career in Safety. Our Safety Specialist apprentices work with a number of other business functions to help deliver big or small projects successfully, including loss prevention, HR, and Operations Management, working with managers.
