  • Producing accurate and detailed daily diaries for your work areas
  • Working collaboratively with enabling teams, for example in Traffic Management, Earthworks, Utilities and Community Relations

What qualification will you be studying towards?

Civil engineer (degree) / Institute for Apprenticeships and Technical Education

What will we need from you?

  • 3 A levels (grades A*-C), one of these ideally in Maths or Physical Sciences. You may also hold a BTEC Extended National Diploma in Construction or Engineering subjects, or equivalent level 3 qualification.
  • 5 GSCEs including Maths and English (grade 4 or above) for us to successfully enrol you on this apprenticeship
  • Passion for civil engineering and making a difference
  • You should enjoy working with other people

  • Starting salary £18 - £20K per year + London travel allowance and annual salary reviews
  • We want you to do well and will support you to have a meaningful career beyond the apprenticeship

Where will you be working?
You will be based on one of our London based Civil Engineering projects. You will spend a lot of your time working on a live construction site and, therefore, you will need to enjoy working outdoors in all weathers. Due to the nature of construction, our work can move to other locations over time.

Find out what Emily, one of our Trainee Civil Engineers, does on a day-to-day basis

‘In the office, I read through all the construction drawings and schedules so I can understand what work is needed on site and when different stages need to be completed by. I give the people working on site permits so they can perform their work safely. I set up the equipment I need to use to do checks on their work so that the ground is dug to the right level and that the concrete is poured to the right height. I also keep a diary so the people working in the office know what’s happening on site. I get to work with other engineers and surveyors doing this and they are really helpful and fun’.
