News: Tata Steel begins search for new apprentices
Tata Steel has launched a search to find 29 bright, talented and passionate people to join its apprenticeship schemes in South Yorkshire.
In 2012 the Tata Steel apprentice training scheme in South Yorkshire was highly commended in the National Apprenticeship Awards.
This year, 11 mechanical engineering, ten electrical, five technical and three commercial apprentices will join the company to work across Tata Steel sites in Rotherham, Stocksbridge and Brinsworth.
Tor Farquhar, HR director at Tata Steel said: "The steel industry is facing a challenging time, but we are continuing to invest in skills for the future and our apprentice programmes are central to our future success."
Tata Steel's Speciality Steels business in South Yorkshire is benefiting from a new strategy that focuses on exceptional high-value products and sectors. An engineering training centre at the Stocksbridge site was officially opened last year.
Just over 2,000 people are employed at Tata Steel in South Yorkshire and these sites specialise in the production of high grade and special steels for the world's leading companies in markets ranging from automotive to aerospace, civil engineering to component manufacturing, energy industries to consumer goods.
All of the steel produced is made from recycled steel.
In total, 122 new craft and technical apprentices will be taken on in the UK to study mechanical and electrical engineering or chemistry and metallurgy, and work towards NVQ qualifications at the Tata Steel sites.
Apprenticeship applications to Tata Steel are open until March 17 with successful applicants starting work in September.
Mr Farquhar added: "The successful candidates can look forward to achieving essential qualifications and contributing to an international company which manufactures world-class steel."
Apprentices are initially on a fixed three year contract and are regularly reviewed throughout this period to ensure they are fully supported to complete their chosen framework.
Apprentice and graduate recruitment restarted for Tata Steel in South Yorkshire in 2010 following large scale restructuring in 2009.
