Job Description

All of our apprenticeships last at least 13 months and combine paid work, training, and study towards a recognised qualification in a relevant subject. As an apprentice with us, you will earn at least the London Living Wage, and get a package of support including additional learning and development, and help to progress into a job or further apprenticeship. Over two thirds of our apprentices stay with Hackney Council. Following a successful first intake in 2018, we are now advertising 21 digital apprenticeships from advanced level (Level 3) to higher (Level 4) and degree apprenticeships (Level 6). Digital sectors are among the fastest growing and best-paid in London and more generally across the country. Many of these apprenticeships are in non-technical subjects like Project Management, Data Analysis and Management Consulting, so may be suitable for you even if you don't consider yourself a 'techie'! We also have more technical apprenticeships in subjects like Software Development, Cyber Intrusion, and Infrastructure, but no prior experience is required. You will spend 20% of your time working towards your qualification or taking part in training and development activities, with the remaining time spent gaining work-based experience.
