Job purpose
SMaP UK is looking to recruit Apprentices to work within assembly, test and inspection areas. The apprentices will receive practical hands on experience where they will be trained to read technical design drawings and circuit diagrams that will ultimately lead to the apprentice being able to assemble, wire or test electronic control cubicles systems and sub assemblies.
A typical build can often take up to several months from start to finish. The apprentices will begin with the basics and gradually increase their knowledge and capability as they progress through the apprentice competency matrix.
The successful candidates will be self motivated and eager to learn. In return SMaP UK can offer a fantastic opportunity to grow and develop within an established engineering company.
