Business Apprenticeships - work, earn and learn

Kick start your career with an apprenticeship based in Royal Borough of Greenwich Council. You’ll have on-going learning and development with prospects for future progression. We have a variety of business administration apprenticeships available, so plenty to consider and apply for.

Why an apprenticeship?

Apprenticeships give you the opportunity to gain vocational qualifications, whilst gaining valuable workplace skills and experience. Successful candidates will secure a fixed term contract in the council on a highly competitive apprenticeship salary.   

You’ll receive:

• A nationally recognised level 2 or 3 Apprenticeship (you’ll have study release for this)

• Full time roles (35 hours per week, including training)

Please note that to be eligible for an apprenticeship, you must demonstrate a level of competency in Mathematics and English. Candidates who have English and Mathematics GCSE Grade D/ Level 3 or equivalent qualifications are required to bring along certificates on the day.  Alternatively, you will be required to take Mathematics and English assessments on the day.
