  • Computer literate.
  • Friendly and sociable nature.


Desirable

  • Proficient in Microsoft Office, including Excel, PowerPoint, and Word.

No previous experience is required.

Training Provider: Learn Tech - Live, Virtual Delivery Model (Training Providers could be subject to change based on availability of course or organisational needs).


During your apprenticeship, you will receive two types of training.


On-the-job training will be delivered by Schneider Electric, your employer. You’ll receive training and supervision to help you perform your role. This will include skills and knowledge that are outside of the apprenticeship but necessary for the job. In addition to ‘on-the-job’ training, they will support you in other ways to ensure your success. Types of support will include:

  • A comprehensive induction

Off-the-job training will be provided by a carefully selected training provider during your normal working hours. You will spend at least 20% of your working hours (approximately 6 hours per week) completing ‘off-the-job’ training. This is protected time and a requirement for apprenticeship delivery. This training will teach you the knowledge, skills, and behaviours outlined in the apprenticeship standard, enabling you to achieve occupational competence.

Upon successful completion of your apprenticeship and depending on your performance, there may be an opportunity for you to transition into a permanent role at Schneider Electric!

  • All applicants must have a permanent right to work in the UK, as Schneider Electric is unable to offer visa sponsorship for this role.

Schneider Electric recognises that embracing diversity unlocks innovation and creativity, fostering collaboration. They strive to ensure that their employees reflect the diversity of the communities and customers they serve.
