What is included in a PIB Group apprenticeship?

It’s a blend of education and work experience. You’ll spend 20% of the working week developing the knowledge, skills and behaviours to successfully complete your apprenticeship with the support of our Learning and Development team. For the rest of the week, you’ll be applying what you’ve learnt to thrive in a real job with real responsibilities to contribute to our story of growth.

You’ll receive comprehensive training along with a competitive salary, support from tutors, a skills coach and a line manager who will support you to build a successful career.
