About the Role

Have you always had that knack for practical, hands-on tasks? Are you often curious about how things are made and why things work? If so, perhaps electrical maintenance engineering is your career call. Earn as you learn, combining college study for a Level 3 Advanced Maintenance Technician Apprenticeship.

Breedon is a home for inquisitive learners. Quarries, cement, and construction are no longer old-fashioned sectors. We’re providing the foundation for our lives, building the places where we live and work, play and in-between.

Are you interested in:

  • Being paid to go to college; earn as you learn, without having to ‘work the time back’.
  • Achieving a Level 3 Advanced Apprenticeship in a sought-after engineering discipline.
  • Full company funding of any fees for qualifications and training.
  • No need to buy your own kit or any work equipment; it’s all on us.

  • A competitive salary significantly higher than the national minimum wage for apprentices.
  • Support from a community of apprentices; a collaborative and comprehensive induction.

  • Servicing and maintaining equipment.
  • Working on big yellow machinery to equipment that deals with dust, there will be lots to learn.
