The programme follows our recent 
group expansion. We currently already employ apprentices, and have had such positive experiences through hiring apprentices that we are launching this programme, through this we hope to expand the group even further. The successful candidates will be working within our busy town centre office, and will have a wide range of responsibilities from admin and customer service to contributing their ideas to the marketing and business development plans. The role will be very hands on, and will provide a varied, fulfilling and exciting set of new skills which will provide a valuable launch pad for their future career.

The National Apprenticeship Service recently launched a huge campaign to promote Apprenticeships, and speaking at a recent event in parliament, John Hayes MP, Minister for Skills said ”
These young people are an inspiration to anyone looking to break in to their chosen industry… apprenticeships not only deliver the skills businesses need in order to grow, they also enable people to build long, fulfilling and productive careers“.

Laura Hucker, Lion Containers manager said “
by launching this programme, we are selecting the very best young local talent in order for us to expand our group further. There has been a lot of government talk regarding schemes to provide young people with a future, we hope to support these schemes and help strengthen our economy. We believe that we have a local responsibility to help these young people gain valuable work experience and skills, our existing apprentices are worth their weight in gold and we hope to uncover more local talent”

We will be holding an open day between 10am-1pm on Saturday 7th September where candidates are invited to the office to meet some of the staff, have a brief interview with Laura and perform some day to day tasks in order to get a taste for the role.
