Who are we?
We are the charity who look after and bring to life 2,000 miles of waterways across England and Wales, because we believe that life is better by water. It takes an extraordinary team to bring our waterways to life and that's where you come in.
As part of our commitment to the long-term maintenance and restoration of the waterways, we are looking to recruit a Carepntry Apprentice.
Join us and you'll be caring for your environment as well as your community, helping make life better by water for everyone. Every day.

During your time, you will also learn about the importance of the works we do, lock gate changes, patching and repairs.

Knowledge, Skills/Qualifications & Experience
Ab out the Apprenticeship
Our apprentices complete a Carpentry & Joinery Apprenticeship. Details of the apprenticeship can be found here:
As a Trust apprentice, you will complete your apprenticeship training both on and off-the-job, including regular attendance at our chosen training provider. You may be expected to stay away from home to attend training - all college related travel costs are paid for by the Trust. Whilst on-the-job, you will work with supportive colleagues to get the best out of your apprenticeship experience. We regularly arrange placements for you to build your portfolio, as well as opportunities to work on projects. This involves working across our network, so you may be working away from home. No two days are the same
After the Apprenticeship
We are fully committed to support all of our apprentices during their training. We truly value their contribution to the Trust and plan our recruitment to match progression opportunities. Once the apprenticeship is completed and your work on site is to a satisfactory level, we aim to offer ongoing employment opportunities with us.
What skills and abilities do I need to have?
We look for candidates who live and breathe our values; Caring, Open, Local, Inclusive and Excellence and have a willingness to learn, enthusiasm and dedication. We are looking for potential.
This is predominantly an outdoor role. We love the outdoors at Canal & River Trust, and it's so important that as a member of the team, you enjoy all weathers too
What qualifications do I need to have?
Ideally grade A-C or grade 9-4 in Maths and English GCSE (or equivalent) already achieved or on target to achieve.
What qualifications or experience would potentially help me more?
An interest or connection to the waterways network or heritage assets
Any general construction experience, potentially through hobbies, work experience or volunteering.
Inclusive and supportive employer
At the Trust we care passionately for our waterways, and as importantly, for those who look after and use them. We strongly believe that a diverse workforce brings with it a diversity of ideas, thinking and ways of working which enhances what we do as a Trust. We are striving to represent the diverse communities that we are a part of and welcome applicants from across all sectors of the community.
