Overview

Role Title: Procurement and Order Management Logistics Apprentice

Location: Telford

Apprentice Level: UK Level 3 Advanced Apprenticeship

Salary: £20,000

Role Mission

We are looking to recruit a Procurement and Order Management Logistics Apprentice to enhance the depth of capabilities in the team as we move through a major company-wide computer system implementation. The successful candidate will take on real responsibilities liaising with internal and external customers and suppliers.

Key Responsibilities

• Work alongside experienced planners
• Manage purchase orders and sales orders
• Support bringing goods in and distribute out as efficiently as possible
• Receive full training in systems (including SAP, Excel and BFO)

Training

During your apprenticeship, you will receive two different types of training. On-the-job training will be delivered by Schneider Electric, as your employer. You’ll receive training and supervision to help you perform the job you’ve been hired to do. This will include skills and knowledge that fall outside of the apprenticeship but are needed for the job role. As well as providing on-the-job training, it is important that we support you in additional ways to ensure your success.

Types of support will include:

• A comprehensive induction
• Mentoring or regular one-to-one guidance
• Social enrichment and networking opportunities
• Performance reviews
• Mental health and wellbeing support
• Feedback opportunities

Off-the-job training is delivered by one of our carefully selected Training Providers during your normal working hours. You will spend at least 20% (average 6 hours per week) of your working hours completing off-the-job training. This is protected time and is a requirement for apprenticeship delivery. This training will teach you the knowledge, skills, and behaviours set out in the apprenticeship standard so you can achieve occupational competence.

Work Pattern

37.5 hours per week to be worked from Monday to Friday. Exact start and finish times are to be agreed with the Line Manager. Some of these hours will be allocated to off-the-job training as part of your Apprenticeship Programme.

Skills and Attributes

Essential

• Attention to detail
• Good communication skills
• Commitment and openness to learning
