Amazon UK is delighted to be sponsoring the South Yorkshire Apprenticeship Awards, with a special focus on the “Degree Apprentice Award” Open to apprentices who are studying level 6 or above.
This year, as Amazon celebrates a decade of apprenticeships in the UK, an additional 1,100 full-time apprentice roles are being added to the company’s UK workforce. These roles will be available across a wide range of apprenticeship schemes, including engineering, IT, HR, marketing, data science, cyber security and sustainability along with warehouse team leaders and health, safety and environmental technicians.
The 1,100 new apprenticeships highlight Amazon’s ongoing commitment to creating jobs and providing opportunities for training and upskilling across the UK. Once qualified, apprentices will have the opportunity to work across Amazon’s UK sites including fulfilment centres, delivery stations, sortation centres and the company’s UK head offices in London and Manchester and the four development centres in Swansea, Edinburgh, Cambridge and London.
Amazon provides competitive pay, comprehensive benefits and a modern, safe and engaging work environment for its employees. The roles pay a minimum of £10.50 or £11.45 per hour depending on location, and up to £32,000 a year for degree-level apprenticeships. Apprentices also receive a benefits package that includes private medical insurance, life assurance, income protection, and an employee discount, as well as a company pension plan.
