Responsibilities
What will the apprentice be doing?
This is where mechanical and electrical engineering meet and it’s as exciting as it gets. Robotics, electronics, product engineering and more. Fixing the machines that make our machines. Without you, things won’t just grind to a halt they’ll stay that way. Every time a problem arises, you’re right there, on the job. Yes, it will be highly pressurised at times, but the career you’ll develop will be amazing and really important in our business’s future.
What training will the apprentice take and what qualification will the apprentice get at the end?
For the first 22 months of the apprenticeship, you will mainly train at our dedicated training partner's development centre (Toyota, Derby) with some placement weeks based at JCB. The final 22 months you will be mainly based in JCB gaining on the job experience.
You will work towards recognised Level 3 Engineering qualifications. When you've successfully completed the programme, you'll be ready to start your first real Maintenance Engineering job role within JCB.
What is the expected career progression after this apprenticeship?
