The firm behind iconic The Shard to Wimbledon's No.1 Court's retractable roof is helping the next generation of  people to launch their careers through its  apprenticeship scheme.

Severfield has a base on Lostock Lane in Bolton.

Many iconic structures have been built by the company from The Shard to Wimbledon No. 1 Court's retractable roof, to a wide range of Premier League football stadia across the country. 

Now, with its latest apprentice recruitment drive, the next generation of talent has the opportunity to be a part of shaping the skylines of the future.

Recruitment is now underway for a wide variety of positions across different disciplines, including fabrication, estimating and maintenance. 

Clare Munster, head of talent and recruitment at Severfield, said: “Attracting top talent is a priority at Severfield and our future success relies on our people.

"We offer candidates the unique opportunity to gain lifelong skills in our supportive, inclusive environment.

"There is no greater accomplishment than seeing the individual successes that our early career pathways have created, and continue to create.

"We are always looking to engage with candidates who aspire to make a difference to the built environment, and I would encourage anyone interested in a career in the construction industry to consider applying for an opportunity with Severfield.”

Jill Jenkins, Severfield’s early careers manager, added: “It’s a pleasure to see our current apprentices develop and take on new challenges as they grow into their roles.

"What’s better still is seeing the enthusiasm from colleagues who have completed apprenticeships, in continuing their learning and development with us.

"Also, as gold members of the 5% club, this really demonstrates our proven commitment to investing in our workforce though a wide range of ‘earn and learn’ programmes, showing our next generation that we are serious about investing in them and their future.”

The recruitment for the 2023 intake of apprentices is set to close at the end of July, with start dates at the end of August and early September.
