Training

  • Candidates will study via day release at East Surrey College.

We firmly believe in nurturing talent.  For the right individual there are no limits to the potential for progression.  After successfully completing the apprenticeship we anticipate the candidate becoming a full-time member of our IT staff, with the opportunity to progress into a specialism (e.g. Security, Networking, Cloud) alongside general duties. 

Because we are a relatively small team (11 colleagues in total), the opportunity for exposure to both project and support work across a variety of disciplines exists, as well as the opportunity to progress into more senior roles within the business.
