About employer
JN Bentley is a leading civil engineering and construction company in the UK, directly employing over 1850 people and with an annual turnover in the region of £400 million, generated from projects in both the building and civil engineering markets. As part of the global management, engineering and development consultancy, Mott MacDonald, we offer our clients full feasibility, design and construction services throughout the UK.
You will receive full on the job training from your dedicated mentor. Your apprenticeship will be supported by an external service provider at college or in a classroom environment. This training may be carried out virtually, in a local office, onsite or at the training provider premises in Peterborough, which may need you to stay away from home, but all related expenses will be covered by JN Bentley.
You will work towards your Level 3 Utilities Engineering Technician apprenticeship.
You will be a permanent employee from day one with JN Bentley. However, when you complete your initial apprenticeship qualification, you will be considered for further training. This will be discussed with both your mentor and our Learning and Development team.
From completing a Level 3 qualification, this could then lead to you having the opportunity to carry out higher or degree apprenticeships in your preferred field within the mechanical, electrical and process remit.
