Our Service to Employers
We help employers and apprentices reach their potential and get the right ‘match and fit’ for a fruitful working relationship. We can help employers:
- Choose the apprenticeship framework or standard that suits their business
- Recruit their apprentices
- Set up apprenticeship schemes on site
- Navigate the complex funding arrangements
- Throughout the apprentices’ apprenticeship – with regular visits from an industry-experienced assessor
Advertise Your Apprenticeship Vacancy
Apprenticeships are work-based learning. Your apprentice is your employee and spends most or all of the week in the workplace. that’s why apprenticeships are advertised just like jobs and we work a little bit like a recruitment agency, to match the right candidate to the right employer.
We can help with:
- Deciding what kind of apprenticeship programme to offer
- Shortlisting and interviewing candidates
- Complete initial assessments for Maths and English with the candidates to check eligibility
- Assist with advertising your vacancy
To get the ball rolling, simply email: [email protected] or contact us on 01482 390 888.

Apprenticeship Funding and Incentives
Funding for apprenticeships depends on the size of the employer.
Large employers with a wage bill of over £3m per annum pay a levy to the government which is set aside to fund apprenticeships with that employer.
Employers with over 50 employees but a wage bill under £3m per annum will contribute 5% towards their apprenticeship funding. The government will pay the other 95%. These employers are also eligible for incentives, such as £1000 per apprentice for employing a 16-18 year old or a 16-24 year old care leaver/someone with an Education and Health Care Plan (EHCP).
Small employers with under 50 employees get 95-100% of their apprenticeship funding from the government. For 16-18 year olds or a 16-24 year old care leaver/someone with an Education and Health Care Plan (EHCP) the employer will receive 100% of funding.
Check our funding arrangements guide for full details – also available on the document list on the left.

The payment is different to apprenticeship levy funds, so you can spend it on anything to support your organisation’s costs. For example, on uniforms, your apprentice’s travel or their salary. You do not have to pay it back.
The payment is in addition to the existing £1,000 an employer will already get for taking on an apprentice who is either: aged 16 to 18 years old or under 25 and has an education, health and care plan or has been in the care of their local authority
To receive the payment, you must submit an application for each eligible apprentice using your apprenticeship service account.
You will need to add the apprentices to your apprenticeship service account first. Further details can be found here Government Incentive Payments
