Apprenticeships

James Walker is committed to expanding its skilled workforce and in the UK, one of the ways in which we do this is through a strong and progressive apprenticeship scheme across all areas of the business.

We are all about investing for the future, providing our people with practical, hands-on training in a working environment, whilst supporting them in their pursuit of formal recognised qualifications. It is particularly important for us to continue driving the benefits of apprenticeships across the business through recruiting new colleagues in apprenticeship roles and upskilling our current workforce who wish to develop both personally and professionally.

The learning and experience gained throughout the course of an apprenticeship is invaluable, and maximises the potential of our people and benefits the business through an upskilled, engaged workforce.

More than just an apprentice scheme - this is an opportunity to join a global business. Apprentices with James Walker benefit from:

• A structured introduction to the world of work
• Earning while you learn
• A wide range of opportunities across all areas of the business, including engineering, manufacturing, business administration, sales, management and more
• Mentoring by experienced personnel
• Support to pursue further qualifications and training programmes
• A wide range of career opportunities within a global business
• Development of employability skills and a wealth of work experience

At the end of the programmes we see individuals who have developed into fully skilled, competent, qualified professionals who are valued members of our workforce.
