Since 1998, apprenticeships have been the building blocks of the Intelect workforce, and have continued to be for the past 25 years as we have grown and progressed as a business. When it comes to apprenticeships, Intelect’s ethos has always been ‘train to retain’, and as such, we are now renowned for our award-winning program, gaining both local and national recognition and ranking 29th in the government’s Top 50 SME Apprenticeship Employers.
Our Level 3 Design and Draughtsperson apprenticeship is a three-year course, which includes training at Middlesbrough College.
This role requires the candidate to provide full commitment to a 40-hour week. Day to day work will involve the use of design applications such as AutoCAD, Inventor, and Solidworks. The apprentice should have a basic understanding of these applications; however, full training is provided. Working on several different engineering projects, the candidates will produce drawing packages for clients and the fabrication department.
The design apprentice will work alongside the design team to deliver projects and meet targets. They will develop and produce 2D and 3D drawings and will be required to provide support in carrying out site surveys at various client locations, which will be followed up with drafting quotations based on the clients' requests.
All apprentices are provided with their own uniform. They will also receive additional ongoing training, covering various aspects of health and safety to ensure they have the latest knowledge and information to hand.
Starting rate for the first year of the apprenticeship will be £7.55 per hour; however, this will increase on a yearly basis in line with our apprentice pay structure – this will be discussed with candidates at the interview stage.
We are looking for someone with the following experience and qualifications:
* Minimum grade 4 for English and Maths required.
* Driving licence advantageous.
* Previous work experience desirable but not essential.
* Strong interest in mechanical engineering and design.
* Good attendance and timekeeping.
* Ability to meet deadlines.
