Lisa Hutchinson
“I didn’t consider University after A-Levels because I knew higher education wasn’t for me. I wanted to do something that would allow me to develop business skills, get my qualification and have hands on experience whilst earning a wage at the same time. The apprenticeship has given me confidence, I’ve developed my skills and learned how to be more efficient and manage my time. I’ve taken
- n a lot more responsibility and made some lifelong work
relationships and friendships. Unilever has a great development culture; there are training schemes, seminars and so many senior people to learn from. It’s a great way to get hands on experience and further your career!”
Father & son, Jim & Josh Carew
“Josh has quickly developed into a confident and committed young man who knows his destiny is in his
- wn hands. A Unilever apprenticeship is truly a strong
alternative to university to provide a solid foundation for future professional development and employment. The company has a solid approach to mentoring their youngsters during their early career, giving parents or guardians an added level of comfort that their youngster is in safe hands!”

BUSINESS & TECHNOLOGY APPRENTICESHIPS
A Business and Technology apprenticeship is a springboard to a career in a corporate environment. It will give you invaluable experience in a global and diverse company. Programmes include: Business, IT, Digital & Technology Solutions, Digital Marketing, Human Resources, Finance & Project Management. We offer advanced, higher and degree apprenticeships ranging from 18 months to 4 years in duration.
RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT APPRENTICESHIPS
An R&D apprenticeship at Unilever enables you to put your science education, passion and curiosity into practice whilst gaining practical experience in
- ne of our global R&D centres.
We offer a recognised apprenticeship programme which leads to a full BSc Degree in Chemistry. R&D apprentices work on developing and enhancing some of the world’s leading home, personal care and refreshment brands. Programmes are typically 4 years.
SUPPLY CHAIN & ENGINEERING APPRENTICESHIPS
Getting a delicious ice cream like Magnum into the hands of a customer in the right condition at the right time (and the right price!) is very much at the heart of what we do in Supply Chain. We offer a recognised apprenticeship programme in either Engineering or Manufacturing. Supply Chain apprentices will see first-hand what it takes to get our products from the factory to our customers around the world.

EY Apprenticeship Strategy
The back story …
In previous years EY chose not to adopt an Apprenticeship model for the following reasons:
We felt it was inappropriate to take Government Funding in times of austerity for students we would hire and train anyway We wanted to retain greater flexibility to create our own school leaver programme, without restrictions or minimum requirements Onerous vocational and administrative requirements, including regulation by Ofsted A negative brand perception of ‘apprenticeships’ by our target students
What has changed…
Funding requirements passed to end user – the employer – via an Apprenticeship Levy Apprenticeships designed by employers to achieve a more attractive proposition (through ‘Trailblazer’ committees) Apprenticeships to be available across all sectors, at all levels, including degree and masters level
Government Goals and Policy
Exit from the EU Digital Disruption
EY & Wider World
Widening Access, Diversity and Inclusion Perception of Apprenticeships Schools held to account for the numbers of students going into apprenticeships
Apprenticeship Programmes – Our EY Proposition
The EY Apprenticeship proposition …
EY Business Apprenticeship:
Introduced for 2017 intake
Graduate Apprenticeship :
Consider for the future
Change our existing programmes
Degree Apprenticeship programme:
Potential for trainees to obtain degree whilst completing EY apprenticeship e.g. Digital industry apprenticeships
Other Apprenticeship Programmes:
Opportunities for apprenticeships to be
- ffered to trainees and current
employees not eligible for our traditional school leaver or graduate programmes
New introductions
Questions to consider…
Will tomorrow’s leaders all have degrees? Will you stop learning when you start earning? Is a head start sometimes the best start? Do good things always come to those who wait? How can planning today take you further tomorrow? How far can you go without a degree?
