We’re ERIKS – a leading Specialised Industrial Service Provider, making remarkable a reality every single day.
We offer a wide range of innovative and high-quality industrial service solutions with the overall mission to make “industry work better”. You might just see O-rings and valves, but to us, they help power the world.
We know our hard-working people are the backbone of our mission, providing our customers with specialist knowledge and hands-on service.
This is where you come in!
Why ERIKS?
With 170 sites across the UK and Ireland, a supportive environment is never far away.
And, even though we’re proud to be part of the manufacturing industry, our opportunities extend far beyond warehouse jobs. You might be a fitter in Cork, a workshop engineer in Aberdeen, or a customer operations manager in Hull – wherever you are, your specialism is our strength. Collectively, we all have incredible expertise, and we know it takes dedication and hard work to get there.
At ERIKS, we’re committed to building a community – it’s the people you work with, it’s the support you receive from your manager, it's the technical specialism that is at the core of everything we do.
What are you waiting for? We can’t do it without you!
About your Apprenticeship
As an Engineering Fitter Apprentice at ERIKS UK&I, you will be working within one of our busy electro-mechanical workshops and on site for some of our key client locations. You will be working alongside experienced fitters and engineers who will help you understand our process and ensure you are working in a safe, consistent, and professional environment.
Your apprenticeship will be working with SMB College in Leicestershire which you will attend for one week, every 4- 6 weeks. Accommodation, meals, and travel is provided and paid for by ERIKS UK&I during these block weeks of education.
You will also have regular team meetings, explore different parts of the business and work in other workshops across ERIKS UK&I to learn from industry experts with your fellow apprentices, and build a community to share best practices, experiences and have people to lean on who are going through the same or similar experiences to you.
As well as gaining professional experience as an engineer, you will also gain personal development and independence.
Experience
As an apprentice joining ERIKS UK&I, we are not expecting you to have knowledge or experience of working an engineering fitter or similar role. We are looking for people who adopt the same values as we do, who we are wanting to learn and develop their skill set, be a team player and take pride in your work and achievements. You will also be joining a leading industrial service provider – you may not know us, but you will certainly know our clients!
This is a fantastic opportunity to join a dedicated team, and further your engineering workshop career, and further.
