Embark on a four-year project management apprenticeship and you’ll be supporting business growth with large investment across various technologies, with a keen focus on digitisation, sustainability and innovation. The role of a project manager is designed to enable this investment and create structure and ensure delivery for the future of our energy needs. You’ll work with diverse teams across the business through six-month placements while studying part-time at York St John University for a fully-funded BSc (Hons) in Project Management.
During the programme, you'll have the opportunity to select placements based on your current university modules and course requirements, as well as your interests and career goals, like:
- Working closely with our change management experts to identify areas of improvement, implement innovative solutions and drive organisational change.
- Supporting the day to day running of the business including our customer service teams and parts of the business that run our energy centres and power generation sites and deliver our energy efficiency measures.
- Managing budgets (control of spending and costs), financial and strategic planning to support the future of our business.
- Gaining practical experience in construction and installation projects, getting involved in onsite activity and working with installation and existing project managers.
- Building relationships with stakeholders including leadership teams and mentors and bringing new ideas into the business.
What we need from you
To join this exciting programme, you’ll need:
- GCSE maths and English language at grade C/5
- Minimum of 3 A-Levels at grades BBB or equivalent T-Level qualification or BTEC at DDM
Here’s what you need to know
