Apprenticeships at Stepnell

At Stepnell, we’re committed to growing future talent and helping people develop Skills for Life that set them up for long-term success in construction. Apprenticeships provide a structured, hands-on learning experience where you can earn, gain qualifications, and contribute to real projects from day one.

Why apprenticeships at Stepnell?
Apprentices work on live projects, learning from experienced professionals while building practical and technical skills. With a significant proportion of our workforce made up of trainees, apprentices, and graduates, we know apprenticeships are not just beneficial to individuals, they are essential to the future of the construction industry. Our programmes are designed to offer long-term career pathways, not just short-term roles.

Apprentices making a difference
Beyond technical skills, our apprentices play a key role in delivering social value in the communities where we work. They get involved in:

• Supporting schools and colleges, mentoring T-Level students and taking part in careers events.
• Community volunteering, such as helping to restore local spaces like the Dunchurch churchyard.
• Providing career guidance, including mock interviews and talks at student events.

We place apprentices with the right teams and mentors so they can develop confidence, teamwork, leadership and communication skills alongside their trade or professional expertise.

Start, switch, or grow your career
Whether you’re starting out, changing direction, or looking to progress in construction, Stepnell offers apprenticeship and trainee opportunities that can support your next step. Our programmes are designed to help you build Skills for Life while contributing meaningfully to the projects and communities we serve.
