Vacancy Electrical Design Apprenticeship
Vacancy overview
Code: 2000002644
Our 4-year Electrical Design Apprenticeship is an exciting opportunity to join the team shaping the future of nuclear engineering. You’ll be part of a forward-thinking group that delivers technical solutions to some of the UK’s most important energy projects.
From the start, you’ll be involved in the full design lifecycle, gaining experience across a range of activities. This could include producing detailed drawings and models, surveying equipment on site, or supporting the installation and testing of a design you’ve helped to create.
Along the way, you'll develop your skills in electrical design software, circuit layout, and design analysis, with opportunities to work on everything from General Assemblies to Printed Circuit Boards.
As part of our team, you'll also support the build and test stages, working alongside manufacturing and operational colleagues to bring your designs to life. It is a varied and rewarding role, with placements across different areas of the business to broaden your understanding and confidence.
Safety and quality will be at the core of everything you do, guided by national and international design standards and supported by expert mentors who want to help you succeed.
