The majority of your second year will be spent out on site putting all that theory into practice with your new team.

Your daily routine will vary but generally you’ll arrive on site 8.30am. The location will vary depending on which patch you work in and what work needs to be done.  You’ll typically be working with a small team.

The atmosphere in the teams is great, the apprentices are always made to feel included, and  the engineers are approachable and willing to share their experiences with you.  You’re likely to find the work on site challenging both physically and mentally, but support is always available and the working day passes quickly.  During lunch time you’ll need to bring your own lunch and some sites have basic kitchen facilities if you need them.

Your work on a normal day will finish between 16.30 to 17.30.

Once you successfully complete the apprenticeship you will transfer to a permanent Craftsperson role within the local area
