As an Electrical, Control and Instrumentation Engineering Apprentice at Cavendish Nuclear, you'll combine technical learning with real-world engineering as you help design, build and maintain specialist nuclear facilities. Over 4 years, you'll gain the skills, knowledge and professional experience to kick-start a career that makes a meaningful difference. You'll join one of our engineering teams working across either our Civil Decommissioning or Defence business streams. From designing control systems to developing Computer Aided Design (CAD) models and performing electrical load calculations, every task helps ensure the safety and sustainability of nuclear infrastructure. You'll support the full design lifecycle: from initial concept through to detailed design and design for manufacture. Typical tasks may include producing technical documentation, assessing designs for risk and safety, and learning to work with standards and regulations that apply across the industry.

You will study towards the Product Design and Development Engineer (Degree) Apprenticeship standard through the University of Lancashire. Your training will be delivered through a blended learning model that combines in-person and online teaching. Each semester begins with a three-day block of face-to-face delivery, followed by weekly online sessions throughout the term. The programme integrates key disciplines such as materials science, Computer Aided Design (CAD), systems integration, and prototyping.

As part of your development, you'll take part in internal training that broadens your knowledge beyond your core role. This includes radiological shielding, risk assessment and nuclear appreciation modules. You'll be automatically enrolled onto our Apprentice Development Programme, which includes a series of digital and face-to-face sessions presented by wellbeing and performance experts and external partners.

Fully funded qualification, personal development training and opportunities, minimum 28 days holiday allowance including bank holidays, competitive pension scheme, employee share scheme, flexible benefits including cycle to work scheme and employee shopping savings portal. Opportunity to get involved in STEM outreach activities and volunteering opportunities.
