Early Careers
Earn while you learn! Are you ready to kick start your career? If so, we have apprenticeships available with Morris & Spottiswood in a variety of trades including joinery and flooring. We strive to ensure you have the best exposure to all areas gaining valuable skills, knowledge and experience to help you succeed in your chosen profession. In return for your commitment, the company provide high quality training and support in an environment where you and your career can thrive.
We recognise the importance of providing early career opportunities to attract new talent. Having trained over 500 Apprentices to date and with more apprentices being taken on this year across Morris & Spottiswood and subsidiary mechanical and electrical company Livingston Building Services, the apprenticeship scheme illustrates our commitment to providing a launch pad to develop construction skills and grow talent from within. The learning doesn’t stop when you reach the end of your apprenticeship. Trainees with aspirations to learn and develop further are offered opportunities to develop through the Company’s trainee development programmes (including HNC/HND and University qualification routes).
HR Director, Susan Hughes comments “We have a real passion for creating pathways and driving career development. We understand that our team is the backbone of this business and in order to achieve our ambitious 10-year growth plan we need to invest heavily from top to bottom to have the necessary skill and competence. It is incredibly rewarding to see our trainees grow and move into a variety of roles in our business from Site Supervision to Project Management and commercial roles."
