Job Summary
We’re looking for a multi skilled Technician to join NHBC’s Apprenticeship Training Hub. You’ll play a key part in helping apprentices learn the fundamentals. This is a practical, hands-on role where you’ll use your trade experience to keep the hub running smoothly, ensure materials and equipment are ready, and guide learners as they develop their skills. If you take pride in your craft and enjoy helping others progress, this could be the ideal next step for you.

- Recording apprentice progress and supporting assessments where required.
- Acting as a First Aider and Fire Marshal, maintaining safe working conditions across the hub.
- Responsible for the cleanliness and appearance of the training hub, ensuring a safe working environment for both learners and staff. This will include controlling materials, hazardous substances, and deliveries while maintaining safe access and segregation. The role also involves supervising the use of equipment, including power tools, and monitoring and enforcing PPE standards throughout the facility.
- Responsible for general maintenance of the centre and tools.
- Reporting and recording breaches of health and safety and conduct that may be used for any further action deemed necessary.
- Preparing classrooms and practical working areas for exams, other training, and presentations to internal/external bodies.
- Undertaking any further duties required in support of other training activities taking place at the training hub or as directed by your manager or senior trainers.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
