Work
As an apprentice, you’ll work at a company and get hands-on experience. You’ll gain new skills and work alongside experienced staff.
What you’ll do at work
You will help a team including engineers and technicians who work with architects to model, draw and assist in designing building structures using a variety of construction materials and designing complex underground drainage and utilities networks that support the building. This is design work that really matters.
You will work on a wide variety of buildings, from brand new sports stadia, universities, to offices and industrial premises. You could also get involved in the computer modelling and drawing of external parts of buildings, such as car-parks and access roads.
You will also have the advantage of Building Information Modelling (BIM) technology, which enables us to design buildings collaboratively using computer models.
Across all teams, you will support a variety of different work, including production of engineering drawings and sketches, including 3D or 2D computer drawings; production of Building Information Models (BIM) (depending on the specifics of the role); undertaking virtual design reviews; preparation of simple engineering calculations and contributing to solutions for design challenges.
