About the Role
Kick-start your future supporting the UK’s largest water and wastewater provider. You’ll help deliver a portfolio of small to medium capital projects and learn how engineering solutions keep services running for millions of customers. Over the 3 years and 6 months apprenticeship, you will support delivery of mechanical, electrical, civil, control, and instrumentation projects up to £5 million. You will work closely with operations and contractors to scope, specify, and cost value-for-money solutions. Promoting a zero-compromise approach to health & safety and ensuring CDM compliance will be key responsibilities. You will collaborate with delivery partners to keep projects on time and reduce business risk, draft and review RAMS, project plans, CPPs, and commissioning documents, oversee commissioning and handover to operational teams, and ensure training, test certificates, and as-built drawings are completed and provided. Most of your apprenticeship will be spent working on the job, gaining hands-on experience while completing the Construction Design and Build Technician Level 4 training course.
