Is it time you hired an apprentice?
If your business is expanding and you need more resources, taking on an apprentice may be the perfect solution. You’ll get a ground-up approach to training a valued member of the team, who may become your next permanent employee.
Brighton Chamber is working with City College to ease the process of finding, hiring and managing an apprentice.
- You’ll interview and choose your apprentice from a good calibre of candidates
- You'll have support and advice throughout the apprenticeship
- You may be eligible for a £1500 grant, available to businesses hiring an apprentice between the ages of 16-23
- Training for your apprentice is free up to April 2016, after which there may be a small charge depending on the age of the apprentice
Apprentices are available in a wide variety of areas including AAT, Business Admin (including social media) and customer service, and can be from 16 years, though there is no upper age limit.
If you’d like to find out more about how your business could benefit, contact Grace Evans at Brighton Chamber on 01273719097 or office@businessinbrighton.org.uk.
