We have a successful track record of developing our people through the Howdens apprenticeship scheme where you will gain recognised skills and qualifications and be fully supported through mentoring and training.

The apprenticeship:

This is a 4-year apprenticeship where you will be based at our training provider, HETA (Humberside Engineering Training Association) and need to attend full time at one of the HETA engineering colleges in Hull, Stallingborough or Scunthorpe during the first year of your apprenticeship.

Alongside this you will continue to gather evidence for your portfolio
  • Year 3 - You will continue your onsite training whilst working towards your end point assessment of the Level 3 MOET (Maintenance and Operations Engineering Technician). You will also start your HNC and return to HETA one day per week
  • Year 4 – On completion of your apprenticeship, you will gain a Level 3 MOET qualification with HNC

What we’re looking for:

  • 5 predicted or achieved GCSE Grade 5 (or equivalent) which must include Maths, English, Science & Technology
  • Confident communication and natural problem solving skills
  • A willingness to learn and develop your skills and knowledge

The application process:

As part of the application process, you will need to pass the HETA online testing to be accepted onto the apprenticeship and will then be invited to attend an assessment day with us on successful completion.

What we can offer you:

  • Competitive apprenticeship salary (and monthly production bonus after your first year)
  • A permanent role with Howdens upon successful completion of the apprenticeship
  • Excellent pension scheme (company contribution of up to 12%)
  • Exceptional training and development programme
  • Apprentice community of over 600 apprentices across the UK and graduation ceremony on completion of programme
