What is a Manufacturing Apprentice? 

Production and manufacturing areas can be challenging, fast-paced and highly demanding, where deadlines must be met, and work and products are produced to a high standard. Manufacturing Apprentices are an integral part of the Manufacturing Services Division filling various roles in assembly, machining and maintenance depending on the skills and interests of the individual. These are practical, hands-on roles in a division that requires people to be flexible, dealing with the changing demands on production and the production environment. 

What will I do? 

The first year will be spent in full time training at Gloucestershire Engineering Training (GET), a technical facility based in Gloucester. You will learn the basic practical and theoretic principles of engineering and how to perform engineering operations. 20% of your time will be classroom based and 80% is spent in the workshop learning hands-on skills, using machines, and applying theory. 

This apprenticeship enables apprentices to gain experience in and support the production of machined parts that feed into our assembly areas and for other customers. Some of the tasks include: 

Operating/ setting/ programming various CNC machinery/programmes 

Undertaking milling, turning, and grinding techniques 

Using Computer Aided Design (CAD) 

Being able to use verniers, micrometres and other measuring equipment 

What skills and qualifications do I need? 

Applicants must have: 

GCSEs at a minimum of Grade 4 or C including Maths, English and Science. If you don’t meet these grades, we look at the whole application so we still want you to apply, you might have the practical skills that we are looking for

You can include predicted grades if you have not completed your studies yet. 

Relevant work experience done through school or college would be beneficial although is not essential.

A genuine interest, motivation, and enthusiasm to undertake a practical, hands-on role in a manufacturing and engineering environment.
