Take your career to the next level!

Our Manufacturing Centre of Excellence, located in Montrose have recently identified a need to fill its talent pipeline, by creating a number of Apprentice positions.

During your 4-year Apprenticeship, you will attend the Angus Training Group (Arbroath) full time, for the first year, where you will complete the SVQ Level 2 in Performing Engineering Operations.

Upon completion of Year 1 of your apprenticeship, you will integrate into, and rotate through our team of experienced assembly and test departments or, depending on your role/discipline, be based in the department for an immersive three years of hands-on training.
