Apprenticeships are a great way to build and develop new and existing skills. They can also be a gateway into an organisation, where you can build a career in your chosen profession.
At Connexus we work to develop our own talent, by bringing in new colleagues to:
Not only do you get an apprenticeship and associated qualification, you’ll have access to an array of other training, from Excel and Word, leadership, management, first-aid, mental health first aid, safeguarding, to name but a few.
All this plus a great welfare package, plenty of annual leave, and lots of other benefits, as well as working for a great company that is helping to create stronger, better, brighter communities.
Perks of working at Connexus:
| I chose the apprenticeship route because if I'm honest I was bored of just sitting in a class room learning theory, and when you're in an apprenticeship you can actually learn hands-on, real life scenarios, real life tactics and problems that your going to have day to day. I'm really enjoying it. I am absolutely loving my apprenticeship, it's one of the most amazing things I've done in my life. It's something that's expanded my knowledge, expanded my skills, and if I'm honest it makes me happy going home every night knowing that I have achieved something at work, and I'm excited for the next day because every day is different. It's one of the most amazing things I have done in my life to be honest, and its just one of those things that if I could sit in front of someone who's looking for an apprenticeship and Connexus have some available, I'd say go for it. |
| I really enjoy my time working here at Connexus. Plumbing and heating engineering is something I've always wanted to learn and do and I'm so grateful for Connexus and my hiring managers for giving me this opportunity. Starting a new job can be daunting, but everybody I have met so far has been informative and friendly. I look forward to the days ahead with the company, and hopefully a long career with Connexus once I am qualified. |
| I started my apprenticeship with Connexus in 2021. I previously struggled to find one elsewhere due to being slightly older than the average apprentice but this was never an issue with Connexus. I have been supported through my training, supplied with all of the tools I need, and work alongside great mentors. Employees are cared for and this is demonstrated in the benefits given such as the amount of annual leave, pay (as an apprentice) and support given from all levels of staff. |
| I started as the Development Administration Apprentice in September 2024, straight after leaving school. I chose an apprenticeship because I wanted to gain a qualification and experience whilst learning in a real work environment. Since joining Connexus, I have gained confidence, developed valuable skills, and received great support from my team. One of the benefits has been the flexibility to work from home, which has helped me build independence within my role. |
| I started as the Communities administrator apprentice in late 2023 after completing my level 2 Business course at Hereford and Ludlow college in July 2023. I’m really liking working for Connexus and I’m enjoying meeting new people. Everyone is included at Connexus, and they take care of everyone equally, they have really helped me gain confidence when talking to people. Everyone is friendly, helpful, and welcoming. |
| I started as a Financial Apprentice in October 2022, and began a Level 2 Accounting course with HWGTA. I enjoy working with Connexus, there is many perks such as Westfield Health Rewards, 27 days of annual leave + plus bank holidays, and the ability to work from home. My team are very helpful with my development. |
