We have also made significant progress in delivering programmes for Government, such as driving forward planning reforms, and pressing ahead with our mission to deliver the homes the country needs.


Now, we're looking to the future and the work we need to do to continue making a difference to the lives of people across the UK.

We need to continue building and developing our workforce so that we can effectively deliver our priorities, which include:

About us


We are looking to welcome a new cohort of apprentices to work in policy, project delivery and business administration roles.

No previous experience in these fields are required, nor do you have to have previous experience of working in the Civil Service.

In fact, these roles will be ideal for anyone working in the Civil Service for the first time as the accompanying apprenticeship will help you develop the necessary skills, knowledge, and behaviours that you will need to perform effectively.


Apprenticeships
As one of our apprentices, you will be enrolled onto one of the following Apprenticeship schemes.

Please click on the below links for further information:


  • Level 3 Business Administrator
  • Level 4 Policy Officer
  • Level 4 Associate Project Manager


The apprenticeship takes approximately 18-24 months to complete and during this time you'll achieve the skills, knowledge, and behaviours necessary to work effectively in your role.


To manage your learning, 20% of your paid working hours will be dedicated to 'off the job' learning you apprenticeship for you to focus on your training and developing your skills.

The apprenticeship training will be provided as a blend of online learning and virtual classroom tuition delivered by an Apprenticeship Training Provider.

You will be given assignments throughout your apprenticeship and you will use examples from your job to provide evidence for them.

You will have regular meetings with a Talent Coach from the apprenticeship training provider and with your Line Manager from your job to ensure you are on track and are supported.
