– Thank you –

More young people are getting the chance to build their careers close to home thanks to North Lincolnshire Council’s expanding apprenticeship offer.

Dozens of residents – from school leavers to career changers – have already taken up roles across the council, developing vital skills while earning a wage.

In the past year, 84 apprenticeships have started across the council – ranging from business administration and planning to social care, IT, engineering and leisure.

Around a quarter of these were new recruits joining the council for the first time, while the rest were existing employees gaining new qualifications and progressing their careers.

Cllr Rob Waltham, leader of North Lincolnshire Council, said: “This is about people, not paperwork. When residents can learn, earn and progress locally, everyone benefits – families, communities and the wider economy.

“Every apprenticeship is another investment in North Lincolnshire’s future.”

The details of the new approach taken by the council were shared in a Cabinet paper approved on Monday 13 October as part of plans to grow local skills and create more opportunities for residents to build fulfilling careers in North Lincolnshire.

The approach is creating new routes into skilled work and keeping local talent in North Lincolnshire. Many apprentices go on to secure permanent roles or higher-level qualifications, building the next generation of professionals.

Cllr Elaine Marper, cabinet member for transforming the customer journey, said: “We’re seeing young people and adults find a real sense of purpose and pride through these opportunities. It’s practical, hands-on experience that leads to lasting careers and stronger services for residents.

“The report recognised that apprenticeships play a wider role in strengthening the local economy – helping people start and grow their careers right on their doorstep.”

The programme is funded through the apprenticeship levy, cash that would be sent to central government if not used for training and development for local residents.

The council is one of many local employers offering opportunities, with dozens more available across the area in engineering, health, construction, digital and more.
