Why it pays to be an apprentice.
Being an apprentice comes with all the perks of being part of the team. That means a proper contract of employment, paid holiday, and sick pay. You’ll also earn a wage throughout your apprenticeship – just like every other employee.
Your apprenticeship journey.
Every apprenticeship journey is different – and that’s what makes them so exciting! From day one, you’ll be supported by a dedicated coach who’ll guide you through to your assessment. Most of your learning will take place in your role, whether that’s in one of our buzzing pubs or within a department at our Pub Support Centre (Head Office).
The length of your programme will depend on the qualification you’re working towards, but don’t worry – apprenticeships are all about hands-on experience. You’ll be developing your skills in real time while growing in confidence every step of the way.
