There are fantastic careers available in the building trades which provide fantastic careers for those who prefer practical work. You can choose to be an apprentice in the wood trades as a site carpenter or a bench joiner which would take you two years to gain an intermediate qualification. Some carpenters then decide to take the advanced option in order to gain more sophisticated skills which would allow them to supervise others on a job site. You may also decide to embark on a career in the plumbing and heating sector with the goal of becoming a gas engineer. There are also options within this sector to gain an advanced qualification as a Renewable Energy Engineer. Some of the busiest people on work sites are skilled plasterers! With a two year Plastering apprenticeship you will learn all the necessary skills to become a top plasterer earning work on building sites. Some people might prefer to work as a painter and decorator apprentice learning about different painting techniques on internal and external surfaces. There is also the very exciting option of a Multi-trade Construction apprenticeship which gives apprentices training in plumbing, carpentry, painting and decorating, plastering and bricklaying. This apprenticeship is highly thought of by organisations conducting regular maintenance of facilities or by construction firms engaged in general buildings' work. If you are looking for a trade that really tests your practical skills and your theoretical knowledge, you should consider a career in Electrical Installation.

We have an aspiration to create1000 new apprenticeship opportunities across the Hinkley Point C project.
As one of Europe’s biggest and most high profile construction projects, Hinkley Point C presents a huge opportunity for everyone connected with it.
It’s expected that around 25000 job opportunities will be created at the new nuclear power station being built on the Somerset coast.
Commercial Apprenticeship Programme
We are looking for highly motivated, ambitious and energetic people to develop their skills to be world-class commercial professionals.
You will spend 5 years learning from experts as part of the apprenticeship and, as well as getting valuable real world experience, you will study for a university level qualification.
The construction of Hinkley Point C is one of the largest and most technologically complex construction projects ever to be built in the UK and will require a highly skilled and competent construction workforce throughout the supply chain. With a build programme of approximately 10 years and a peak workforce of around 5,600, it provides an invaluable opportunity for sustained employment and enhanced skills provision for both individuals and businesses in Somerset and the South West.
