The Vacancy

What we offer:

At McCarthy Stone we recognise that people are the key to our success. You will have opportunities to help you to develop whilst gaining practical experience in our Industry. You will work in an environment where you can fulfil your personal potential, with the support you need to put yourself into a learning mode and the experience and challenges to help you grow. Including:

  • Joining a team of apprentices across the country developing and supporting each other.
  • Following the Level-4 Construction Site Supervisor Level 4 Apprenticeship Standard, which includes a HNC in Construction and the Built Environment. It will take up to 27-months to complete this.
  • One-day each week will be dedicated entirely to lectures and studying for your apprenticeship qualification. The apprenticeship will be delivered by our provider via blended learning, combining online lectures and tri-annual training weeks delivered face to face.
  • You will be supported to obtain a CSCS card, which you will need to have before you can start work on site.
  • Regular reviews with your training provider, line manager and workplace mentor, in addition to wrap-around support from the Talent and Learning team.
  • You'll be encouraged to take ownership and responsibility. We challenge the status quo and empower everyone to share ideas – if you think there's a better way of doing things, we'll be all ears.

And the best part of the programme? It's on us, meaning you won't pay a single penny in tuition fees!

 

Questions and Answers:

What is an apprenticeship?

An apprenticeship is a paid job which offers hands-on work experience alongside off-the-job training. As an apprentice you are an employee with a contract of employment, holiday leave and all the benefits of being a full-time member of staff. By the end of an apprenticeship, you'll have the skills and knowledge needed for your chosen career along with practical experience and a nationally recognised qualification.

Tell me about the role!

As a Construction Management Apprentice, you can expect to assist in the responsibility of a project section or work package where you'll manage the on-site health, safety, and quality.
