Renfrewshire Council is seeking to recruit office based Modern Apprentices.

 

 

Our Modern Apprentices will be based in various Council establishments (depending on current vacancies) and will earn an attractive salary while working towards a SCQF Level 6 Scottish Vocational Qualification.

 

 

Applicants must be aged between 17 and 19 and live within Renfrewshire.  Applicants must have achieved a minimum of two Highers at grade C or above (or equivalent). 

 

 

We are looking for someone with a good standard of numeracy and literacy, good communication skills, the ability to work as part of a team but also on their own initiative.  Successful applicants must have a flexible approach to their work and be motivated.

 

 

Successful applicants will be provided with a positive opportunity to pursue permanent employment and a worthwhile career within this Local Authority.

 

 

If you meet the recruitment criteria and are confident you have the commitment to gain a SCQF Level 6 qualification in a year or less, apply now. 

 

We are an equal opportunities employer and welcome applications from suitably qualified persons regardless of their race, sex, disability, religion/belief or sexual orientation or age.

 

We would particularly invite applications from those priority groups who are under-represented across our apprenticeship programme. This includes young women, care experienced, those with a disability (including a learning disability) and those from Black and Minority Ethnic communities.

 

If you are disabled or care experienced, you will still be eligible to apply if you are aged up to 29 at the start of the apprenticeship. Please contact Renfrewshire Council to discuss.

 

If you feel you would benefit from receiving help to complete your application form, or with interview techniques, please contact our Employability Hub by calling 0300 300 1180 to make an appointment with one of our advisors.  Please ensure you allow enough time to do this prior to completing your application form.

 

If successful, you will be required to undertake a Disclosure Scotland check, the level of check will be determined by the duties of the post. If you would like further information in relation to the Disclosure Scotland checks, please visit www.disclosurescotland.co.uk

 

Please note, successful applications will be required to attend an interview. Interviews will be held bi-monthly until August 2023.
