Production Technician Apprentice - Bury St Edmunds, United Kingdom - Tiro
Description
Location: Suffolk, IP30 9NDWorking forGeosense
Are you interested in building products for some of the world's largest construction projects? Do you want to play your part in the exciting future of a UK sensor manufacturer? If yes, our client, Geosense, a leading manufacturer of monitoring sensors, is looking for a Production Operative/Technician to join its award-winning production team. Based in a state-of-the-art modern production facility just outside Bury St Edmunds, Geosense produces high quality, state of the art sensors for civil, infrastructure, mining, and environmental sectors. These products are used on some of the world's most prestigious construction projects and help engineers understand how their structures are behaving.
Check out the video below to see what Geosense all are about:
Their core values have been developed to help them shape the way they work together. They want to install these values in every member of the team through Open and Honest Communication, Care & Respect, Collective Responsibility, being Client Focussed and Agile.
Geosense are looking to take on an apprentice to help grow their workforce. Having grown significantly in the last three years, they take great pride in the fact that they are able to manage their clients effectively whilst remaining a family run business.
The Package
At Tiro, we make great things happen for people. And that starts with you. In this role you'll receive:
What will I be doing as an apprentice?
As a Production Technician Apprentice, you will have the opportunity to work alongside experts, including the Operations Manager to assist with the manufacturing of geotechnical instrumentation products for long term monitoring in civil engineering projects.Throughout your training programme you will get the opportunity to do various activities such as:
"My apprenticeship at Geosense has been really valuable in terms of building up work experience while training, especially for someone like me who had no previous experience in the sector. Working with a mentor and being given one-on-one training as well as being given opportunities for continual professional development has helped me improve my knowledge and feel confident in my role. Working at Geosense has given me a supportive environment to further my education, at the same time as gaining practical experience and learning new skills."
What could the future look like?
There's no limit to what you can achieve if you work for Geosense, with potential for the successful applicant to be offered a full-time position working with the business at the end of the apprenticeship.
Through 'on-the-job' training you'll have the opportunity to learn new skills including working safely in a science manufacturing environment, understanding personal responsibility for Health, Safety and the Environment and principles of risk management as well as the quality procedures to meet the requirements of quality standards relevant to the workplace.
If design and engineering interest you, then there is an opportunity to work alongside the R & D department, where you can learn more about CAD, CAM and CNC manufacturing techniques.
Skills, Knowledge, and Expertise
ExperienceWhilst previous experience is great, we at Tiro are always open to wildcards. We're not just interested in experience and qualifications; we're looking for someone with the right attitude and aptitude to fit right in at Geosense.Qualifications
It's about enthusiasm, not school results. In our experience the most successful apprentices are those who are driven to find out more about the sector, can be up front about what they do and don't already know, are considerate, self-reflective, and impatient to learn the job role
About You
We're looking for someone who embodies the core values at Geosense. Someone the team can rely on and show integrity to themselves and others.
Dexterity is key as you must be comfortable working with small components over a period of time. You must be calm under pressure whilst maintaining great attention to detail.
To succeed in this apprenticeship, you'll need bags of enthusiasm, be a fantastic collaborator and be hungry to learn
Be prepared for a challenge as you take on activities to ensure the targets are met, whilst standards are upheld to ensure the safety of your team and working environment.
Even if this doesn't sound quite like you, but you still think you could do a great job in the role, get in touch. We're always open to wildcards.
So how does the apprenticeship work?
At Tiro we're obsessed with changing lives through science and technology apprenticeships so we can't wait to have you on board.Over 24 months, you'll devote a minimum of 6 hours of your working week on 'off the job' training. This can include theory training (for example, virtual lessons & online learning), alongside practical training (for example shadowing, mentoring, & time spent writing assignments. Together this will count towards a Level 3 Science Manufacturing Technician apprenticeship. You'll be trained by an expert tutor from Tiro as well as an experienced mentor at Geosense who together, will make sure you develop the knowledge, skills, and work habits you'll need to succeed in your career.
Being an apprentice is hands-on, so you'll get the chance to learn things you might otherwise not have experienced in a university or college environment.
The best part? You'll be earning a salary while you gain your qualifications, meaning no huge student loans to pay back at the end of the programme
Want to know more. Check out the apprenticeship standards here.
Eligibility While we never want to hinder your job application process with obstacles, there are some minimum requirements you'll need to meet in order to do an apprenticeship, these are rules set by the UK Government. You'll need to be over 16, not in full time education, have lived in the UK for 3 years and have the right to work in the UK. If you don't quite meet these minimum requirements yet, let us know you're interested here and we'll get in touch to discuss this further with you. We're Tiro (pronounced 'Tea-ro' as in white, two sugars).
In Latin, it means novice, recruit, apprentice, beginner and soldier. The perfect name for a company that's been helping fearless apprentices to join ambitious businesses since 2005.
We believe that great apprenticeships help everyone. There are remarkable apprentices out there just waiting to be found, and fantastic employment opportunities waiting to be filled.
Our work will never be just about getting bums on seats and pocketing our commission. In our own small way, we're helping to change the world – finding people that are working on COVID vaccines, finding new ways for technology to help humanity and helping to tackle the big issues of the day, like climate change. As well as helping people – young and old – to find their way.
