I am pleased to update you following our contact earlier in the year that we have extended our application deadline for our Combat Systems Technical Apprenticeship scheme in Glasgow until Friday 28 March 2015.

This gives more people in and around the area an extra three weeks to submit their applications to be in with a chance to secure one of the eight sought over places on our Combat Systems Technical Apprenticeship scheme.

 

BAE Systems Naval Ships is committed to employing high-calibre people who are looking to build their skills and career while working with highly skilled teams designing and developing the combat systems helping the Royal Navy operate in some of the world’s most difficult and dangerous environments

There are eight new Combat Systems Technical Apprentice vacancies which will see successful candidates cutting their teeth on the ‘brains’ of the Royal Navy’s next generation warships – Combat Systems. The new apprenticeship will teach the design, development and integration of state-of-the-art naval combat systems, which crew members in modern warships depend upon to operate effectively. Combat systems includes IT infrastructure and complex electronic equipment, such as radars and sensors.

Our apprenticeships are the lifeblood of our early careers programme so if you think you have students who may be interested in applying or finding out more please visit: www.baesystems/ukcareers.
