Location: Oldbury, West Midlands
We are currently seeking 6 Apprentices to enter our training programme. This is a highly regarded scheme which offers an excellent opportunity to earn while you learn.
Metsec remains one of the few Engineering companies to run an in-house scheme, without any external support. To date we have trained 47 apprentices that now make up 14% of the workforce, well on the way to achieving the goal of 20% by 2020.
Metsec has a thriving Apprentice Centre, where in the first year you will be based in the Apprentice workshop. During this time you will complete an NVQ Level 2 entitled ‘Performing Engineering Operations’ (PEO). The PEO will give you basic metal working skills in bench fitting, marking out, milling, lathe work, operating the pedestal drill and some basic assembly skills.
On completion of the first year, you will then move onto an Advanced Apprenticeship to obtain an NVQ Level 3 which involves working in all departments at Metsec to gain a good understanding of how the business is run. During this time you may also have day release to a local college/training provider to gain a Level 3 Technical certificate to compliment the NVQ Level 3 gained at Metsec.
