Apprenticeships

Watkins is committed to providing the conditions for the next generation of construction professionals to thrive. Our apprentice program accounts for 10% of our directly employed workforce. The program is overseen by senior managers and includes education, hands-on experience, and on-going support. Our apprentices’ work on some of the largest residential projects in the UK and they learn a wide range of skills in plumbing, mechanical and electrical installations.

Many of our apprentices come from areas local of schemes in and around London. Our program provides opportunities to young people in the communities that have sometimes been overlooked by the construction industry.
