NEW APPRENTICESHIP FOR 2025

Maintenance and Operations Engineering Technician

In September 2025, Tiger Trailers will be welcoming 10 apprentices into our factory to begin a 3-year qualification to become a ‘Maintenance and Operations Engineering Technician’, which falls under the wider qualification of ‘Manufacturing in the Automotive Sector’. An apprenticeship scheme provides us with the ideal opportunity to develop and nurture new talent, building on our current highly skilled workforce, to meet future business needs. This is a significant investment for the business and an exciting opportunity for us to partner with Manchester College and Total People, who share our passion for developing young people.

There will be an open day in late June for the applicants to see the site and learn more about the business, they will then attend an assessment and interview day in late July. Applications for the programme are now live on the Government website. Discover more by clicking the button below:
