National Apprenticeship Week 2020: Careers in Chemical Manufacturing #NAW2020

This week, the UK is celebrating National Apprenticeship Week 2020.

There will be a number of initiatives across the nation to get people talking about the prospect of pursing an apprenticeship as an entry into the working world. Apprenticeships offer valuable on-the-job training coupled with classroom studying. Apprenticeship schemes can run across a variety of disciplines, such as finance, engineering and chemistry. Such schemes are an ideal career development opportunity for school leavers who want to gain an insight into the working world, whilst gaining valuable skills to allow them to access such careers.

Robinson Brothers continues to support apprenticeship schemes to help the new generation in the workforce. We focus on providing opportunities within IT, sales, quality, engineering and chemistry disciplines.

Here are a few of the schemes we have offered…
Apprentice QC Analyst
Apprentice Pilot Plant Technician
Mechanical Engineering Apprenticeship

What’s more? Our Apprentice Pilot Plant Technician, Jamie Wilkes, was recently awarded Black Country Chamber of Commerce Apprentice of the Year. Click here to read more.

Jamie continues to study part time at the University of Wolverhampton, working towards his BSc in Chemistry, whilst working as an apprentice. “I am grateful for the opportunity. I wish to continue to learn and grow, and hope to be a beacon of hope to young students that nothing is set in stone; if you truly want something, anything is possible with enough hard work”, said Jamie Wilkes.

Robinson Brothers also continues to support undergraduate placement programs. This is enabled through working partnerships with: University of Birmingham, University of Wolverhampton and Aston University. Robinson Brothers has supported such schemes to train young professionals within their engineering and science divisions to develop the next generation of workers.
