At Mitie, we're the UK's leading facilities management and professional services company. We deliver critical services that power businesses, communities, and individuals across the nation. Joining Mitie means being part of a team that values collaboration, innovation, and the passion to make a difference. We're here to help you kick off your career with purpose, passion, and plenty of support.

Whether you're stepping into your first job or looking to change your career, our apprenticeships are your ticket to learning, earning, and achieving. With us, you'll gain nationally recognised qualifications, real-world experience, and a competitive salary – all while being part of a company that truly cares about its people and the planet.

We're proud to be one of the Top 100 Apprentice Employers in the UK, currently ranked 16th, and a leader in creating inclusive workplaces where everyone can shine. Together, we're shaping brighter futures – for you, for our communities, and for our world.

What You'll Be Doing

You'll be working on our newly awarded four-year contract with Great Western Railway (GWR) – delivering engineering maintenance across 203 stations and six depots on a network that spans 1,997 kilometres, serves over 1,600 services daily, and stretches across 10 counties and South Wales.

As an Apprentice at Mitie, you'll be at the heart of what we do, making a real impact from day one. Here's a glimpse of what your journey could include:

  • Developing core skills and knowledge to install, maintain, and repair electrical systems

  • Assisting with planned routine maintenance as well as reactive repair tasks

  • Collaborating with experienced professionals to gain hands-on experience

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

Your role will be based across the GWR line, giving you exposure to a wide variety of sites and challenges. Alongside this, you'll attend Bracknell and Wokingham College via Activate Learning on day release to study towards a Level 3 Electrical Installation qualification (typically completed over four years).

Our Apprenticeship Team will be with you every step of the way – helping you thrive, grow, and shape a career you can be proud of.

We're looking for motivated individuals ready to learn and take on new challenges. To apply, you'll need:

  • A strong interest in your chosen field

  • GCSEs in Maths and English (Grades 4–9 or equivalent) – certificates required at interview

  • To be 18 or over with a full UK driving licence

  • To pass a DBS check and be open to random drug and alcohol testing

No experience? No problem – if you're enthusiastic and committed, we'll provide everything you need to succeed.

Our market-leading offering provides you with benefits that suit your lifestyle.

We have a virtual GP on hand for you and members of your household. So you can get expert advice by video or phone without having to leave your home. We offer financial wellbeing assistance through our Salary Finance scheme. For example, you could access 50% of your earned pay before payday for a small fee. Salary Finance also offers competitive loans.

When you join us, we’ll give you a link to our flexible lifestyle benefits platform, Choices. You might choose to purchase up to five extra days’ holiday each year. You might buy critical illness insurance, seek dental treatment or buy technology products at an affordable cost. There are many choices!

We give you access to high street discounts from thousands of well-known retailers, gyms and more through our MiDeals platform. And we have a cycle-to-work scheme. Life cover of up to four times your salary is available. We also offer enhanced pension contributions, a save-as-you-earn scheme, and a Mitie Matching Share Plan (you could even be awarded free shares in Mitie).

We award our employees with Mitie Stars as recognition for their hard work. There are cash prizes up for grabs each month and at the end of the year there’s a chance to scoop a top prize of £10,000!

Our success is a direct result of the experience and quality of our people. Progressing your career is therefore a top priority for us. We offer a diverse variety of training and development avenues via a wide selection of learning resources to suit you.

We are committed to ensuring our recruitment process is inclusive and accessible to all.
