Sellafield Ltd has been listed in the top 100 apprentice employers in England for 2022.
The annual rankings, produced by the Department for Education, list the country’s most successful apprentice programmes.
Sellafield Ltd recruits up to 200 apprentices each year across 18 schemes, and currently has 600 people in training.
This year, around 200 trainees will complete their apprenticeships across multiple disciplines, from Level 2 (GCSE equivalent) to Level 6 (degree level) schemes.
Donna Connor, Sellafield Ltd’s head of education and skills, said: “Being listed in the top 100 is an endorsement of our excellent training programme, working in partnership with our training providers.
“There is a really exciting career ahead for our young people, who have the opportunity to carry out the nationally important work of creating a clean and safe environment for future generations.
“More than 33 per cent of our current apprentice cohort are female and we retain 95 per cent of our apprentices when they complete their training. I’m delighted that our schemes have received this recognition.”
