Defence and aerospace company BAE Systems has launched its largest ever recruitment drive for apprentices and graduates to work in its Naval Ships business in 2015.

In Glasgow, there are 165 positions now available, including 113 apprenticeships and 34 graduate positions, as well as 13 paid industrial placements and five paid summer internships.

In total, there will be more than 250 apprentices and graduates undergoing training with BAE Systems in Glasgow in 2015.

Scottish Parliament cabinet secretary for training, youth and women’s employment Angela Constance said in a statement: “Investing in young people is not just the right thing to do, it is the smart thing to do.”

Successful applicants for the apprenticeship and graduate schemes will learn about the design, build and delivery of complex warships and their combat systems through a combination of college education and workplace training.
 
BAE Systems is also recruiting engineering technician apprentices to work on the design of complex warships, as well as for operational roles such as welders, fabricators, electricians and plumbers.
