Apprentice - Painting & Decorating

Working alongside experienced decorators and tradespeople to deliver high-quality workmanship and excellent customer service.

Travelling with your Nottingham-based team to sites across the East and West Midlands, gaining experience on a variety of projects and environments.

Ensuring compliance with Health, Safety, Environmental and Quality (HSEQ) standards, making safety and sustainability a priority in every task.

As part of your apprenticeship, you will be enrolled onto a Level 2 Painter and Decorator Apprenticeship with Nottingham College , which typically takes around two years to complete.

Your manager, mentor and painting team will be based in Nottingham and will support your development throughout the programme. Whilst projects may be located across the East and West Midlands, you'll travel with the team to site locations, giving you exposure to a wide range of customers, properties and projects.

You will be fully supported throughout your apprenticeship through a combination of college learning, on-the-job training, e-learning materials and guidance from experienced industry professionals.

Our dedicated Apprenticeship Team will support you every step of the way, helping you make the most of your opportunities and achieve the goals you already have – and those you have yet to discover.
