Engineering apprenticeships

We are incredibly proud of our annual apprentice engineer cohort, hiring 10-20 apprentices yearly in various engineering disciplines.

We offer fully funded, full-time paid apprenticeships in process, mechanical, and electrical engineering. These four-year positions provide hands-on experience working alongside industry experts and the opportunity to attain your Level 3 qualification.

Your first two years will be spent training onsite at TTE (Training Tomorrow's Engineers). The remaining two years will involve onsite work with your line manager, where you will put into practice all the skills you have developed in college.


    • Application process >>

      • Apply to our scheme through the TTE portal.

      • TTE don’t have a particular section for people to show an interest in certain employers. Therefore, we would suggest to state your direct interest in Urenco, and would encourage you to add your specific application to our company on the ‘Why TTE?’ or ‘Hobbies and Interests’ section.

      • Complete an initial interview and aptitude tests via TTE.

      • Successful candidates are invited to attend our yearly apprentice assessment centre, which is typically hosted at the end of May each year. Here, we assess your skills, behaviours and drivers.

      • We will then offer successful candidates placements for a September start at college.

      Commercial apprenticeships

      At our Capenhurst office, we also offer commercial graduate positions. These are business required positions within our People and Culture, Operations or Logistics departments. They can include procurement, finance, security, HR, HSSE and others.

      Our apprenticeships enable you to become an employee whilst completing a structured learning programme to achieve a qualification, under the guidance of a sponsored third-party training company. Apprenticeships involve a combination of on-the-job training and classroom-based instruction.

        These will take place in May half term near Ellesmere Port, all of our hiring decisions will be made based on performance on this day so unfortunately no other options are available.
