Overview
As an Apprentice IT Technician, you’ll do a mix of theoretical and on-the-job learning, dividing your time between a training provider and various mentored worked placements within our IT teams. And at the end of the 22-month course, you’ll have earned a Level 3 Information Communication Technician qualification.
You’ll be welcomed to the team from day one and get involved with real projects, delivery and workload. Your placements will include time on the service desk, desktop support, server infrastructure, network infrastructure and application support teams. So, you’ll get plenty of exposure and unique insights into the world of IT, guided by friendly experts who’ll encourage your questions and input.
When the programme is complete, you’ll have a wealth of skills, knowledge and experience you won’t have gained anywhere else. Even better, your journey doesn’t finish when you end the apprenticeship – you’ll unlock a career that’s full of opportunity, development and creativity as you join one of our IT teams as a fully-trained IT Technician.
What you need
You’ll have (or be predicted to achieve by September 2026) English language and maths GCSEs at Grade C/4 or above, or the equivalent functional skills at Level 2.
You’ll be curious about new possibilities and creative in your approaches. We welcome ‘what if?’ thinking – you’ll be willing to try new things and enjoy sharing ideas with those around you. You’ll enjoy working collaboratively and be keen to absorb as much knowledge as possible. And because you recognise the impact of what we do, you\'ll bring integrity and professionalism to your work as we seek to make breakthroughs together.
What we offer
You’ll be surrounded by a cohort who share your passion, as well as colleagues keen to give their expertise and advice. And, you’ll have a mentor for technical guidance as well as a buddy to help you settle into life here – you won’t be on your own.
You’ll also have access to all the benefits and facilities our staff enjoy, including 25 days annual leave (rising to 30 after 5 years), onsite counsellor and plenty of training and development opportunities to support your learning. We also have free secure parking on-site, as well as a free 24-hour gym, a café, restaurant and multi-faith prayer room.
