All of our apprenticeships are designed to develop your career with Ibstock long term – we have Manufacturing Management trainees and Engineering apprentices who are now Factory Managers, 100% of our apprentices have been offered jobs at Ibstock upon completion. We’re currently offering three apprenticeships, all of which take four years to complete: • Material Science Management Trainee apprenticeship, you’ll be based in one of our clay factories. You’ll qualify with both a degree in materials science, and a material science technologist apprenticeship at level 6. • Quarry Management Trainee apprenticeship, you’ll be based in one of our quarries. You’ll qualify with a mineral products technician apprenticeship at level 5. • Electrical or Mechanical Engineering (Level 3), this course combines study at Make UK Engineering Training School in Birmingham with on-the-job learning at the factory. In college, you’ll learn skills like benchwork and using power tools, in chunks of four weeks at a time. You’ll then come back to the factory to put the skills into practice for two weeks. Whilst you’re at Make UK, we provide accommodation, breakfast, dinner, and a shuttle service to and from your hotel.
