The region’s water company is set to create over 100 jobs in over 30 different roles and programmes.
Severn Trent’s apprenticeship programme will open on Monday, 8 January, with the water and waste services provider encouraging anyone looking to kick-start their career or thinking of a change in job and to learn new skills to apply or explore the opportunities available.
The apprenticeships range from one to four years and the qualifications range from Level 3, which is equal to an A-Level, to Level 6, equivalent to a degree.
The programme spans right across the business covering everything from human resources, finance and legal to hands-on roles as technicians as well as engineering, analyst and scientist opportunities.
Positions based in Staffordshire include Apprentice Assistant Water Network Technician, Apprentice Technical Operator – Water, Apprentice Maintenance Technician – Mechanical and Apprentice Maintenance Technician – Electrical.
Jade Pearson, New Talent Lead at Severn Trent, said: “What better way to kick off the New Year, than to open up applications ready to welcome our next wave of fantastic new talent into the business, as we continue to create work opportunities for hundreds of people living in the Midlands.
“We’re lucky that we have such a varied programme, and so many different options for people to consider – and this year we’ve even added seven new different programmes.
“While we do have the vital operational, technical and engineering roles that you’d expect with a water company to help keep everything flowing, we actually also now have roles within software development, digital tech design and governance, as well as business, finance, environment, cyber security and even an opportunity to work in our laboratories.
“Our roles are as diverse as the region we live and work in, so there’s something for everyone to explore, no matter where you’re from or who you are.”
Severn Trent provides water and waste services to around 4.6 million homes and businesses across the Midlands.
Applications close on 29 March.
