The strong Government focus on Apprenticeships, coupled with the introduction of the Apprenticeship Levy in May 2017, means that it makes good business and financial sense to consider an Apprenticeship as a way of producing ‘home-grown’ talent. In our recent Ofsted inspection our Apprenticeship provision was rated Outstanding with Ofsted inspectors stating that “Apprentices develop an extensive range of skills and knowledge and many extend and deepen specialist skills beyond the requirements of their qualifications.”

An Apprentice might be a new recruit, but they might equally be an existing member of staff you’d like to upskill or retrain, perhaps to increase productivity, meet legislative requirements or because the focus of the business has changed.

We offer a range of Apprenticeships in all main industry sectors, from Level two through to degree level programmes. We adopt a partnership approach, working with you to find the Apprenticeship programme that best meets your training needs, and we also offer a fully-managed Apprenticeship service to help you maximise Apprenticeship opportunities within your business, whatever its size.

In addition to managing the Apprenticeship programme itself we also offer a free-of-charge recruitment service that covers promotional activity, vacancy management, candidate sifting, initial assessment, interviews and candidate feedback – we tailor our support according to your needs and the time you wish to spend on recruitment.
