What you’ll be doing

as an Electrical Higher Apprentice

Joining our engineering team, you’ll undergo a formal Level 6 apprenticeship in engineering through workplace learning. You’ll study for a degree in engineering by day release at Newbury College.

You will be part of the Electrical discipline teams that help Thames Water achieve its Asset Management Planning (AMP8) ambitions to 2030 and beyond. Apprentices will learn on the job and with targeted training courses with direction and support from senior engineering personnel.

You will be:

Supporting the development of engineering solutions and associated technical requirements. Supporting improvements to Thames Water Technical Asset Standards. Contributing to design sign-off and providing input to technical assurance activities during the delivery, commissioning, and handover of assets. You’ll get hands-on experience 4 days a week and spend 1 day at Newbury College a week gaining the theoretical background to your degree.

By the end of the apprenticeship, you will have achieved a Level 6 Apprenticeship Standard in Product Design Development in Engineering. Qualification included in the standard: HNC/HND & BSc (Hons) or BEng (Hons) in Engineering.

When you join, you’ll become part of our thriving apprentice network and enjoy a comprehensive and tailored induction programme. This will be followed by a bespoke development programme to support your personal and professional development and enhance your career progression. As part of this, you’ll get involved in a range of activities and gain knowledge in areas such as mental health and wellbeing, sustainability and health and safety. In addition, you’ll join a variety of events, including our annual raft race.

From day one, we want you to do more than just show up – we want you to fully engage with every aspect of our development programme as these experiences aren’t just extras, they’re opportunities for your growth and development, and for forging meaningful personal and professional connections.

We work with organisations like the Apprenticeship Ambassador Network (AAN) to make sure we continue to offer the very best apprenticeships and graduate programmes, so you can be confident you’re getting a first-class start. Developing engineers can also work towards the competencies set out by the Engineering Council’s UK Standard for Professional Engineering Competence (UK-SPEC) through the Monitored Professional Development Scheme (MPDS).
