The Role
If you’re inquisitive, enjoy hands-on work, and want to build a career in car assembly, this is the perfect role for you. This is an active role. The ideal candidate will have a thirst for knowledge, drive, a positive attitude, and take pride in their work.

You will spend 2 days per week at Chichester College: one day studying ‘Lean Manufacturing Theory’ and one day learning practical skills. When not in college, you will be on plant shadowing colleagues and developing your technical assembly knowledge.
At the end of the apprenticeship, you will gain an EAL Level 2 Diploma in Manufacturing (knowledge and skills).

The apprenticeship features a unique opportunity to get hands-on experience of all aspects of car design and creation. You will spend 2 days per week (in the first term) completing a ‘craft skills’ course which includes woodwork, sewing, mechanics, metal work, and CAD. During this time, you will work towards the following qualifications: Health and Safety, Preparing to Learn, Reflective Practice, and Electrical Vehicle Awareness.
Who are we looking for?
Technical assembly is the ideal starting point for anyone who wants to become a multi-skilled technician. You need to be someone with lots of questions about how things work and have the confidence to seek out the answers.
