By the end of the apprenticeship, trainees will have the skills and knowledge to secure a supervisory position, such as an Assistant Manager role in the business. The apprenticeship also provides our trainees with a Foundation Degree in Mineral Products Technology, and a Level 4 Safety, Health and Environment qualification.
Why Breedon?
Breedon provides real, practical experience and mentoring by industry experts. Plus, you can earn as you learn with a competitive salary, as well as flexible pathways to explore as you develop your career with us!
