Our future depends on not only developing our existing employees, but also attracting new talent and providing them with opportunities to progress. We established the award-winning Bradfords Group Apprenticeship Programme in 2017. Our aim is to 'Grow our Own', ensuring we have a continued talent pipeline.

Our apprentices receive a focussed training programme which allows them to become multi-skilled in their role. Their clear development programmes have ensured that all our apprentices have made an impact and valuable contribution from the start.

Apprentices have given us focus on our roles and how we develop people. Managers are focussed on the benefits of having an apprentice; the opportunity to provide development and see individuals grow in confidence and experience is motivational. In addition, existing staff share their knowledge and experience with apprentices which has had a positive impact on our teams.

Our apprentices receive regular performance feedback, are paid well above the national apprentice rate and receive pay reviews every six-months. Most importantly, we guarantee that they have a permanent role in our business on successful completion of the apprenticeship.
