EC&I Assembly Technician Apprenticeship

AMS Nuclear is an engineering company that specialises in the design and build of Electrical, Control & Instrumentation (EC&I) based systems for the nuclear industry. We now have opportunities for apprentices to join us in our workshop learning how to build the systems that help keep the UK’s nuclear power stations running safely and efficiently.

EC&I Assembly Technicians assemble the control panels and instrumentation-based systems that AMS Nuclear designs. An apprenticeship with AMS Nuclear will enable you to develop the skills and knowledge necessary to undertake this role as a Suitably Qualified & Experienced Person (SQEP) technician in the future.

The apprenticeship can be structured to suit applicants depending upon their previous educational history. However, it should be expected that the four-year apprenticeship would consist of a Level 3 NVQ and potentially leading on to a Level 4 HNC in Electrical and Electronic Engineering. Over the course of the apprenticeship, study at college would be supplemented with on-the-job training in all aspects of the EC&I system assembly following AMS Nuclear’s Technician competency framework.

Completion of this apprenticeship provides a good base from which to either continue down the technician career path or further your education to transition into an EC&I engineering role.

• Five GCSEs at Grade C / Grade 4 or above, including Maths, English and two Science or technical subjects
• A talent and passion for practical subjects and activities
• You’ll have the ability to work in a team and independently, as well as being able to balance the responsibilities of study and work
• Desire to learn and develop your skills
• Applicants must be able to make their own travel arrangements to AMS Nuclear (in Bridgwater) and Bridgwater & Taunton College.
