Moore Concrete’s Apprenticeship Programme is an opportunity that we pride ourselves in offering to young students studying all levels of apprenticeships, providing them with the platform to upskill, develop their knowledge and gain relevant work experience alongside their studies. We were finalists in the CIPD NI Best Apprenticeship Scheme Category, which is a great testament to the work and dedication that goes into developing and supporting our apprentices.  We have an on-site Apprentice Mentor who is available for unlimited support and guidance, as well as quarterly Apprentice Reviews to grasp a deeper understanding of what our Apprentices have learnt and how else we can accommodate them to help grow their technical ability within their role. We are offering joinery apprenticeships which will combine on-the-job learning with study and put the apprentice on the path to gaining a recognised qualification whilst gaining valuable experience in a busy joinery workshop.
