An additional requirement for the apprenticeship position is that you must currently possess a valid Right to Work in the UK. Your visa end date must extend beyond the duration of the apprenticeship programme, which will last up to five years.
Due to Home Office requirements regarding Skilled Workers, we’re unable to accept applications for visa sponsorship for our apprenticeship roles as the proposed salary for the role does not meet the minimum threshold – if this situation applies to you, please consider looking for other vacancies which may be more suitable.
This apprenticeship is based in Manchester, and you will be expected to work from the Manchester office throughout the programme. While our hybrid working policy requires office attendance at least two days per week (40% for full-time colleagues), apprentices are expected to be in the office most days during the initial settling-in period.
If your commute exceeds 1.5 hours, we strongly recommend relocating closer to the office to ensure consistent attendance in line with contractual and hybrid working expectations.
You will join us on a fixed apprenticeship salary. Upon successful completion of the apprenticeship, you will be re-graded, with your pay range consistent with the job family for your business area.
The closing date to apply for this opportunity is 15th December 2026
Our roles generate a lot of interest and occasionally we need to close for applications earlier than originally advertised. If you think working with us could be right for you, please apply now and see where an apprenticeship with us can take you!
If you have any queries regarding the recruitment process, please email [email protected] and a member of our team will be happy to help and will reply within 3 working days (Monday – Friday).
