The minimum salary you’ll receive is £95 a week; however, many Apprentices earn significantly more. You’ll also get to work alongside experienced staff – so you can quickly build up your skills.

Once you’ve completed your Apprenticeship, the work experience and qualifications you’ve completed will prove invaluable – putting you in a strong position to get a great job!

Apprenticeships usually last for one year and you will be employed four days a week and attend Hackney Community College one day a week.

During your Apprenticeship, you will achieve a work-based learning qualification, such as an NVQ, a Technical Certificate and Key Skills.

There are three levels you can study:

  • Apprenticeships: equivalent to five good GCSE passes
  • Advanced Apprenticeships: equivalent to two A Level passes
  • Higher Apprenticeships: you work towards work-based learning qualifications and, in some cases, a knowledge-based qualification such as a Foundation Degree.

We update our Apprenticeships depending on demand, so if you don’t see an one that you like, give us a call. Currently, they include:

  • Accounts
  • Business Administration
  • Carpentry
  • Childcare
  • Construction
  • Customer Service
  • Hospitality
  • Motor Vehicle
  • Plumbing
