Carry out mechanical maintenance tasks on a nuclear power station, along side a mechanical technician or engineer.
Constantly learning and practicingskills used on a day to day basis.
I enjoy my job, learning while working on jobs is by far the best practice for me. I feel its the best way to get a good standard of learning and experence.
Rather highly the company spends a lot of money ensuring the apprenices get good learning oppertunities.
It is well structured however the first 2 years were a slow pace and I feel the qualifications achieved in these 2 years could be achieved in a short time frame.
Constant support is there if needed.

It is a well paid apprenticeship for a young adult however I personally have to watch my income as I am a home owner.
