When you’re manufacturing, inspecting or testing some of the most advanced engine parts in the world, the margin for error is, quite literally, microscopic. That’s why we invest so much in training our Craft Apprentices. We provide a salaried job and the support to gain nationally recognised qualifications.

• In your first year, you’ll gain a strong foundation in the practical skills you need to work on our products within our Lanark factory, you will then commence training with EKGTA in East Kilbride. Over the following three years, whilst attending college on a day-release basis to gain an HNC in Engineering, you’ll continue to broaden and deepen your knowledge whilst working with some of our top engineers.
  
  Along the way, you’ll work towards completing your Apprenticeship framework.

• Our apprentices need to be passionate about manufacturing engineering. So, you should be analytical, motivated and most importantly, endlessly curious about how things are made.
• Numeracy is important, and you should be a great team player. You’ll have to learn fast and have the discipline to balance studying for a qualification with the demands of your role.

• Ideally you will have three National 5 Grades (or equivalent) in Maths and English Language, plus either Engineering, Design & Technology or Science (excluding Biology), all at grade C or above (obtained or predicted), but other qualifications will be considered.
• Successful candidates will be required to sit an aptitude test with EKGTA (training providers for the apprenticeship course).
