Hiring an apprentice - the low cost, socially responsible way of growing your business.

PBD can access apprenticeship funding to train your existing staff. But have you considered bringing in new talent by hiring a young apprentice?

With pressure on costs, and record youth unemployment, apprenticeships offer a low cost, socially responsible way of growing your business.

The minimum apprenticeship wage is only £2.60 per hour. In some circumstances, employers can create unpaid ‘internships’ provided they turn into full apprenticeships within six months. Apprentices must work for at least 16 hours a week.

We can manage the whole recruitment process free of charge.

Our Skills Funding Agency contract gives us access to the massive government Apprenticeship Vacancies database.

We can post all your vacancies. If you wish, we will also manage the whole recruitment process for you - all you need to do is interview the candidates!

PBD will not charge a penny for any of this. There are no catches, no hidden charges. All we ask is that we deliver the training (which is also free!)

To advertise a vacancy, just download and complete the form and email it to us. We will do the rest.
