Almost 40 apprentices are embarking on their careers with British Steel.
In Scunthorpe there are 29 new starters – 12 each on mechanical and electrical apprenticeships, and a further five on structural programmes.
Six more have joined us Teesside Beam Mill while a further four have started their training with the Special Profiles business at Skinningrove.
British Steel HR Director Derek Scott said: “Given the huge levels of investment across the company and the major changes we’re undertaking on the road to net zero, these apprentices have a fantastic opportunity to support the transformation of our business.
“We’ll give them first-class training and support, and they now have the chance to build an excellent career with British Steel.”
Apprentices study towards a National Apprenticeship that will directly relate to the work they’re undertaking, and they’ll be rewarded with a progressive salary and benefits package.
Derek said: “All our apprentices were appointed after a rigorous selection process so they should be proud they’ve been chosen. They are the next generation of steelmakers and I’ve every confidence they’ll be huge assets to British Steel.”
