Things to consider

  • Applicants must be resident within the Royal Borough of Greenwich, in line with local employment commitments under Section 106 obligations and the Council’s ESG and local workforce development priorities
  • This is a physically demanding construction role carried out in active, fast-paced site environments, often working to strict project programmes and deadlines
  • The role requires regular manual handling, including lifting, carrying, and positioning materials such as plasterboard sheets, metal studs, insulation, and ceiling systems
  • Work frequently takes place at height (e.g. working from towers, scaffolding, and mobile platforms) and in unfinished building environments exposed to dust, noise, temperature variations, and other typical construction site conditions
  • Candidates must be prepared for repetitive physical tasks and sustained periods of standing, bending, and overhead work
    The role requires a strong level of resilience, reliability, and the ability to maintain productivity under pressure while working safely at all times
  • The working environment is team-based, but individuals are also expected to take responsibility for their own tasks and, as competence develops, work independently when appropriate in line with apprenticeship behavioural standards
  • A commitment to punctuality, consistent attendance, and adherence to site rules and health & safety requirements is essential;
  • Applicants must demonstrate a genuine interest in learning a skilled trade and developing a long-term career in construction, rather than viewing the apprenticeship as akin to a classroom-based programme or themselves as students
  • Willingness to work outdoors and in all weather conditions when required, depending on site phase and project needs
