Building a sustainable tomorrow. Are you looking to take the next step in your career? If you have completed a level 4 Civil Engineering apprenticeship or HNC in Civil Engineering, we may have the right opportunity for you.

We offer you a path that can take you across sectors, into leadership, or around the world. We invest in development because we want our people to stay and grow. Wherever you want to go, we’ll help you get there.
Join us as a Trainee Civil Engineer and from day one you will be working with an experienced team making an instant contribution to running a multi-million pound project. You will be involved in and learning all about the technical, organisational and supervisory side of construction projects while studying for a degree in civil engineering. You will also be assigned a mentor on site to help and support you through your apprenticeship.
Our degree programme starts at Level 5, progressing to an integrated degree apprenticeship (Level 6) and a BEng in civil engineering. You will work towards Incorporated Engineer (IEng) status with the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE). The apprenticeship is delivered at Leeds College of Building with block release (typically 5 weeks per block) across the academic year. The academic start date for this apprenticeship is January 2027.
Our engineering works cover a range of sectors, and apprentices are based within a variety of teams working on a wide range of projects.
