Level 4 Project Management

Business Apprentice

Location:

Cheltenham

Kohler Mira encompasses three successful brands:
Mira Showers, Rada and Recoup. We have a strong history of apprenticeships and we offer valuable training and experience that benefit both our businesses and the individuals working toward them.

From day one you’re part of the Kohler Mira community – a collaborative, forward focused team with a shared pride in our work and commitment to delight our customers, develop innovative products and services and inspire our people.

If you are enthusiastic, ambitious and driven, we challenge you to join our apprenticeship programme as a Business Apprentice, become part of our ever-growing apprenticeship scheme, and take advantage of the opportunities we provide to develop your skills.

You will learn and obtain experience in the fundamentals of different departments, such as:

• Marketing
• Supply Chain
• Customer Service

Your apprenticeship will last for 24 months, during which time you will rotate around different departments, working on projects that support your development and align to your apprenticeship with our training provider, The Learning Curve Group. You will be taught and will put into practice a range of business skills. You will be supported by a dedicated apprentice manager who will oversee your development, college progress, and ensure you are working on value‑add business projects.

You will join an ever‑growing cohort of apprentices across the business and engineering functions all focused on working towards similar goals. We encourage and empower our apprentices to strive for achievement with many of them having won awards at nationally recognised events for Sustainability, Contact Centre contributions, and recognition awards through their colleges.

In order to develop relevant and transferable skills you will be rolled onto a Level 4 Project Management apprenticeship, which will support you as you grow in your role. This part‑time study will provide you with the opportunity to apply your learning to real‑life business projects.

The placements you complete will give you a broad view of the business and help identify your strengths, with the support of a designated placement mentor.

• Supply Chain: A very large and important function within the business. It covers inbound supply of components all the way through to delivery of products to our customers. From suppliers receiving purchase orders, to the business receiving the components through to having a finished product produced, packed, and distributed from our warehouse. Some areas within the Supply Chain that you would experience include Purchasing, Material Control, Value Engineering, Logistics, Warehouse and Quality.
• Marketing: In the marketing rotation you will be part of a high‑performing team that manages all aspects of the marketing mix for a market‑leading brand. In a highly varied placement, you could participate in one of the many digital projects across the business, develop and launch a new product, work with Mira’s wide customer base to understand exactly the right products for their customers and how a top UK brand measures, manages and communicates with its consumer and installer audiences.
• Customer Service: In Mira Service, you will have insight into the true voice of our end customers. In this rotation, you will gain an understanding of all aspects of the Service function: customer care, field service, and planning and administration. In this placement you will be a champion for delighting the end customer, with projects in new service introductions, supporting digital transformation and enhancing the customer service journey.

Personal and professional development is at the heart of a career at Kohler Mira. Regular time for self‑reflection and review, and one‑to‑one with your manager will be in place to support you. You will also be able to access and utilise our comprehensive associate training courses and materials. This will support you to regularly review your strengths and areas for development, and for two‑way feedback.
