St Helens Chamber have partnered with ESE Group and Riverside College in Widnes to provide new Apprenticeship opportunities.

ESE Group are creating over 30 new apprenticeship roles in their Speke head office for people of all ages.

These apprenticeship roles will help people gain skills, qualifications and experience to boost or start their careers.

Candidates will be supported throughout the whole process by St Helens Chamber, who are providing the Apprenticeship training and pre-employment programmes.

With vacancies in customer service, business admin and more, St Helens Chamber will support applicants to have the best possible chances of success through pre-employment training.

The training will ensure that candidates have all the job-specific skills they need to apply, alongside ensuring their CV is up to date and their interview skills are strong.

Applicants will be matched to a suitable vacancy and will have the opportunity to meet the ESE team and find out more about the role.

Even if applications don’t secure a suitable role with ESE, they can continue to work with St Helens Chamber’s National Careers Service team to find employment.

Laura Brogden, Head of Career Development at St Helens Chamber commented: “We are excited to be working with ESE and look forward to supporting local people into these fantastic Apprenticeship opportunities.

“Particularly through these difficult times, it’s fantastic to see local businesses investing in their community and expanding their workforce. We look forward to supporting these Apprentices through their training and watching their careers develop!”
