“Engineering has always played a crucial role in the railway by keeping trains moving for thousands of customers. Now, we’re looking to recruit the next generation of engineers who are ready to take their first steps on the career ladder. This is a fantastic opportunity to earn a real salary, whilst learning the trade.

“GTR offers brilliant development opportunities, with many of our apprentices going on to gain permanent employment, and with free travel across the network, GTR provides tangible benefits to those training with us.”

“I’ve always enjoyed practical, hands-on jobs, so I wanted to take this passion and apply it to an industry where I could create a longstanding career. I researched engineering jobs and found GTR’s apprenticeship scheme. I wanted to make a difference and be part of a team which helps keep our trains running safely, so I applied for the apprenticeship and haven’t looked back since!”
