Internal Sales Apprentice – Avnet Silica

About the Role

Launch your career in tech sales with Avnet Silica! We’re looking for an enthusiastic Internal Sales Apprentice based in Stevenage or Maidenhead. Join a global technology leader, gain hands-on experience in sales operations, and build strong customer relationships while working towards a recognised qualification.

If you're driven, curious, and eager to learn, we’d love to hear from you.


What You’ll Be Doing

  • Engaging in work-based learning within a vocational sales environment, bridging the gap between education and employment.
  • Gaining knowledge, skills, and competencies directly relevant to the internal sales function.
  • Combining practical experience with complementary education, leading to a recognised qualification or certification.
  • Supporting the internal sales team with day-to-day operations and contributing to outstanding customer service.
  • Performing additional tasks to support the wider team, as assigned.

What You’ll Bring

  • A willingness to learn and grow in a fast-paced, international environment.
  • Basic experience or strong interest in sales, customer service, or administration (less than one year of related experience is acceptable).
  • A good working knowledge of Microsoft Office tools (Excel, Word, Outlook).
  • Strong communication skills and fluency in English.
  • An interest in learning key systems such as SAP, ERP, and order management platforms.
  • Own transport or the ability to commute to the office confidently.

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.
