Engineering Maintenance Technician Apprenticeship

Product Inspection Service Engineering Apprenticeship

We’re looking for a driven and enthusiastic individual to join our Product Inspection Service Engineering apprenticeship programme, starting in September 2026. You will have the opportunity to gain practical workplace experience alongside classroom-based learning, all while earning a salary.

This role will involve gaining an overall experience in the manufacture and service of X-Ray equipment used for industrial applications, with the expected outcome of becoming a field-based service engineer within the Product Inspection division. In parallel with factory-based and in-field activities, you will also attend college to complete your apprenticeship pathway qualifications on the EMT programme.

Apprenticeships include time away from working for specialist training. You’ll study to gain professional knowledge and skills.
