Joel Jackson’s experience, Business Apprentice

“It’s been brilliant getting to work with a variety of people. Those individuals imparting their knowledge has certainly benefitted me and developed my personal skills and technical skills over the two years. The structure of the scheme has allowed them both to work in parallel and it’s been brilliant.”

What we’re looking for

•    You'll need to have English & Maths GCSEs Grade 4 or above
•    Ideally, you'll live locally to Bristol or Bridgwater
•    You'll be self-motivated with a desire to learn and develop
•    You'll have the ability to work in a team and independently, as well as being able to balance the responsibilities of study and work
•    You'll also be able to engage people at all levels, with good communication skills

Where we could take you

At the end of your apprenticeship the doors will open to the larger organisation. If you want to progress up the career ladder, you can take on people management responsibilities and develop into a maintenance team leader.

Or you can choose the technical route and take your first steps towards becoming an engineer. With hard work, there really are no limits to how far you can go – not just within EDF, but within the worldwide EDF Group.

What’s in it for you?

  • Competitive salary with annual pay increases
  • Accommodation and meal costs covered in your first two years
  • A number of paid return journeys home

You'll have the opportunity to perform a variety of tasks that will all positively contribute to your own personal development, knowledge and experience in Business Administration. These tasks include:
