Kickstart your engineering career with a Level 3 Welding & Fabrication Apprenticeship at Zeeco Europe.

At Zeeco Europe, based in Rutland just outside Stamford, we’re growing our Manufacturing team and looking for motivated future engineers to join us on a threeyear apprenticeship programme. This is your chance to learn from industry experts, gain nationally recognised qualifications, and build a career with a global leader in combustion and environmental solutions.

Learn while you earn. You’ll combine handson experience in our workshop with dedicated college training, developing real skills from day one. You’ll be part of a supportive, friendly team where you can be yourself, push your potential, and take pride in the work you do.

What will you be doing?
You’ll spend one day a week at college and four days in our workshop, learning how to fabricate and weld to industry standards.

Your training will include:
• Working safely at all times and following all relevant health, safety, environmental and ISO requirements.
• Preparing and planning fabrication activities using detailed engineering drawings, working with carbon steel, stainless steel and highnickel alloys.
• Setting up, checking and maintaining fabrication and welding equipment to ensure safe, reliable operation.
• Interpreting technical drawings, patterns and templates to produce and assemble complex fabricated components.
• Operating cutting, drilling and shaping equipment, and welding using TIG and MIG processes to meet strict quality specifications.
• Restoring your work area to a safe condition and completing all required documentation throughout each job.

Who are we looking for?
You’ll need to be:
• 18 or over by September (insurance requirement).
• GCSEqualified with at least four passes including Maths, English and Science, plus a relevant postGCSE college course.
• Genuinely handson — maybe you enjoy fixing things, understanding how machines work, or getting involved in practical projects at school, home or in clubs.
• Full of initiative, adaptable, eager to learn and driven to succeed — the qualities we look for in every Zeeco recruit.
• Living within 45 minutes of our Stamford site.

If you want to build a career in engineering with a company that leads the world in what it does — and you’re ready to learn, work hard and grow — we’d love to hear from you.
