Jet2.com and Jet2holidays are marking National Apprenticeship Week by announcing the expansion of their apprenticeship programmes and revealing that they have more than 70 new apprentice positions available in 2022.

The leisure airline and package holiday specialist are recruiting over 70 new apprentices this year, as part of an expansion of their nationwide apprenticeship programmes.

The roles will be spread across Jet2.com’s ten UK bases; Belfast International, Birmingham, Bristol, Edinburgh, Glasgow, East Midlands, Leeds Bradford, Manchester, London Stansted, and Newcastle, as well as its Head Office in Leeds.

Apprenticeship positions are also available in Engineering, Admin, Finance, Software Development, Analytics, Marketing, and IT, giving apprentices the opportunity to gain practical work experience, essential skills, and a professional qualification all while they earn.

Jet2.com and Jet2holidays currently have over 50 apprentices in training, ranging from Level 3 to Level 7 (Master’s Degree), across the businesses in areas such as Engineering, IT, Finance, Marketing, Operations, and Ground Operations.

Katie Rankin, early careers and future talent specialist, of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, said: “This National Apprenticeship Week, we are delighted to be announcing a broad range of apprenticeships for 2022, as well as celebrating the successes of our current apprentices.

“To support that growth, we want to continue recruiting and developing the best team in the industry, and our apprenticeship programme is absolutely critical to that. Our apprentices are already enjoying enormous success, and we are only seeing this getting better and better.”

“We would like to take this opportunity to congratulate all those who will soon complete their apprenticeships after years of hard work and dedication, as well as wish those who are thinking of joining us on an apprenticeship the best of luck. We cannot wait to welcome you on board!”
