About the Role
This is a unique opportunity to begin a career in mechanical building services engineering. The apprenticeship combines hands-on experience with academic learning to develop the skills and qualifications required to design mechanical building services systems including heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and Low Temperature Hot Water Systems.
