About the Project Controls Apprenticeship

During the apprenticeship you’ll work as a Project Controls Engineer based both in the office or with the engineering teams on-site, working alongside industry-leading professionals. 

You will use your current skills and gain extensive exposure to several different business units. You will work on reporting, analysis and look at trends of data whilst pulling together business plans. Cost, risk and change management are all key parts of this apprenticeship.  

During the course of your apprenticeship, you will work as part of the team based at the EDF Gloucester Business Park office with opportunities to work at other EDF locations. 
 
You’ll also spend time studying at the National College for Nuclear, where you’ll complete assignments within the business which will enable you to consolidate your training. 

Over the 3-year training programme you’ll learn to master core processes such as estimating, planning, risk management and cost engineering, whilst applying your knowledge with access to the latest computer systems. 
 
Whilst you’re gaining practical real-world experience, you’ll also be studying for the Level 3 Project Controls Technician standard.
