About the role:
As an Apprentice with this team, you will take on a varied array of duties, ensuring that our offices, facilities and equipment are operating safely. From handling front-of-house services and setting up meeting rooms through to dealing with potential health and safety issues, you will learn from a team who are passionate about their work. While some maintenance activities will be planned, the team also work reactively, responding quickly to issues as they emerge.
As such, every day will present you with a fascinating range of challenges, and you will have the scope to work closely with colleagues from all departments. Taking on a number of learning units that will cumulatively contribute to securing your qualification, you may also be required to complete Functional Skills in Maths and English.
As a fully-fledged member of our team, we will see to it that you are learning the type of transferable skills that will set you up for a great career.
