Things to consider
Candidates need to be 18 or over. GCSE Maths/English (Grade 4/C) is desirable, however, a minimum of Level 1 in maths and English is essential for this apprenticeship with a requirement to upskill to Level 2 functionals skills. Easingwold is located in the middle of the countryside and has limited transport links. There are no direct public transport routes to the site, so travelling by bus or train can be difficult and may require multiple connections. As a result, having access to your own transport is usually the most practical and reliable way to commute to the location. We welcome applications from candidates living within a 1 hour commute of the workplace.
