hello, I was wondering if you have any apprenticeships available at this time and what qualifications that you would require at a minimum to get onto one of your apprenticeships.

28 clairenoble (New Talent Manager) 6 years ago

We offer 2 government apprenticeships (Gas Network Team Leader and Gas Network Craftsperson). You can search the government website for those.
Within those you can do different pathways which relate to our roles - either emergency (responding to gas escapes), or pressure control (operating the gas network), electrical and instrumentation (managing the electrical kit to tell us how the network is performing). The gas network team leader is our repair area - fixing the pipes in the ground.

The company is based diagonally across the country from the North West down to London - so we operate in your area. We have a fantastic training centre in Hollinwood in Manchester.

As we are a new start up company (despite having a 200 year history) we haven't established our work experience profile yet unfortunately.

So our apprenticeships depending on the route you go down range from 2 to 4 years. More info can be found on our careers page from the link in an earlier post.
