Applications are now open!
Your mission
As a Construction Site Management Degree Apprentice, you’ll learn how large construction projects are planned, managed and delivered safely. You’ll work with experienced teams on AWE’s new build programme, developing the skills needed to help manage construction activity on site.
You could help teams keep work moving to plan, check that it meets the required quality standards and project specifications, and learn how projects are managed against agreed standards, budgets and requirements.
THE QUALIFICATIONS YOU’LL NEED
An HNC in a related subject with a merit grade, a relevant Level 4 apprenticeship, or an equivalent Level 4 qualification. If you do not hold a Level 4 qualification, you will not be eligible for this apprenticeship.
Five GCSEs at grade 4/C or above, including Maths and English, or equivalent.
WORK PATTERN
Your primary place of work will be AWE Aldermaston and/or AWE Burghfield in the Reading area, depending on your apprenticeship pathway, placements and business needs.
Due to the nature of our work and security requirements, you should expect to work on-site during your apprenticeship and in your role afterwards. Being on-site will help you learn directly from experienced specialists, access hands-on support and build valuable connections across the business.
At AWE, we operate on a nine-day fortnight, meaning you get every other Friday off work in addition to 270 hours of annual leave, inclusive of Bank Holidays.

• Confidence with maths and using numbers
• Logical, step-by-step problem-solving

Your journey
You’ll learn how construction work is delivered safely and responsibly, with consideration for the environment and the local community. You’ll work with different teams, contractors and stakeholders and see how careful planning, communication and checking help large projects run smoothly.
After completing your apprenticeship, you’ll have developed the foundations for a career in construction and site management. Possible future roles could include:
• A longer-term pathway towards Senior or Principal Construction Manager
• Construction Engineer
• Construction Manager
