We started out in 2012 with just two of us specialising in recruitment of apprenticeships. Nine years on Apprenticeship Connect now recruits apprentices and delivers apprenticeship programmes across England! We’re growing every year and we’re always looking for motivated individuals to join our team.
Training and development is at the core of our business and we are committed to developing careers to help individuals become exceptional; that stands for our internal team too! Our ethos of care and support runs throughout our business and we are committed to helping Apprenticeship Connect employees become the very best version of themselves. From regular training workshops to enrolling our staff on to professional training courses, we pride ourselves on giving our employees every opportunity to excel in their roles. As our business has grown, our employees have grown with us and a number of our staff have progressed into senior roles, so there is plenty of scope for progression within the company.
We work as a team to create a business that is built on collaboration, open communication and care. We’re always looking to expand, so if you want to be a part of what we’re doing, get in touch!
Incentive schemes to reward high performance, and employee benefits packages.

Internal progression and promotion opportunities across all departments.
"We hired our first apprentice through Apprenticeship Connect in the Summer of 2017 after the introduction of the Apprenticeship Levy. We decided to utilise our levy funds to attract different candidates than we did beforehand and to provide much needed support to our key departments, with a particular focus on growing our own talent. Initially, we had entered into conversations with a range of training providers but having met with David Church (Business Development Executive), we decided to proceed with Apprenticeship Connect as nearly all boxes were ticked in regard to our recruitment needs. The quality of the employees we have recruited via Apprenticeship Connect is very high; the support and vetting undertaken by our Talent Partner, Steven Lipscombe, is excellent. Steven always sends additional profiles to provide accurate and honest feedback on proposed candidates once he has met with them, which is a real benefit. Apprenticeship Connect work to a timely recruitment window, attract high-quality candidates and are supporting us in mapping our wider needs moving forward."
"The on-going support and guidance from our account manager Christine Bookless and the Apprenticeship Connect team has been second to none. Every vacancy advertised has been filled and our apprentices are thriving in their roles. Apprenticeship Connect has been very proactive in helping us access additional funding for the training of existing staff members too. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Apprenticeship Connect and supporting the apprenticeship scheme."
"We came across Apprenticeship Connect's website when searching for an apprenticeship agency online after deciding to hire apprentices to help with our increased workload. We have now been working together for four years and the apprentices we have hired in this time have settled in very well."
"We first hired an apprentice as we were keen to engage talent that hadn’t previously worked in our sector. We liked the idea of being able to have employees that would be completing a course while working with us and be able to train them to work in ‘our way’. Apprenticeship Connect have been a huge help to us, we are stretched for time and having the recruitment process taken care of saves us a great amount of pressure. Almost every candidate presented has been of interest and we haven’t had to interview that many to make our decisions. We have previously worked with one other apprenticeship provider and the quality of candidates from Apprenticeship Connect has been much better."
"Apprenticeship Connect came highly recommended to us, they listened to the needs of our business and had a real understanding of the role requirements before searching for the right applicant. The face-to-face interviews of candidates in advance of us receiving a CV really helped to ensure a close match to our criteria, both in terms of skills and attitude. The standard of candidates we received was very good and the apprentices we have hired through Apprenticeship Connect have demonstrated a keen ambition to develop here at Linaker."
"We recruited a Junior Clerk apprentice through Apprenticeship Connect and we were very impressed, the person we hired has been a great addition to our business. Before we worked with Apprenticeship Connect, we had advertised the same position with another apprenticeship company and it had taken them two months to send us any candidates. Apprenticeship Connect couldn’t have been better – very happy!"
