IT Apprentice
Here at Womble Bond Dickinson we love to celebrate success. In 2017 we won an award at the National Apprenticeship Awards ceremony held in London and due to our ambitious nature and past success we're excited to introduce more Apprenticeship opportunities across the firm.
Our latest apprenticeship opportunity is within our IT team joining as an IT Apprentice based in our Bristol office.
Introducing the IT team
First-class IT systems are absolutely key to the success of any business in today's commercial world and the legal sector is no exception. Womble Bond Dickinson prides itself on being at the forefront of technological advancements within the legal profession, something we've become so well known for. To remain competitive in our markets, and to continue supporting our growth strategies, our team of dedicated IT professionals have a key role to play, ensuring the integrity of the IT infrastructure, development of new systems and excellent support to all of our employees, and clients.
During your apprenticeship you'll be working alongside and supporting our Level 2 Analysts. The Level 2 team are location based in each office so they are able to physically go to the person that needs assistance whilst also supporting remotely the wider firm and our clients. They control the IT equipment in each office and the smooth running of local frontline IT services and have advanced technical IT problem solving abilities.
What will you be doing?
Our IT apprenticeship offers you the opportunity to gain a formal IT qualification (Level 3 in IT) as well as paid on-the-job training. You'll be supported by Andy and Louis and work closely with Kostas on the ground. You'll assist with building and rolling out new systems on Windows 10 and Office 2016, support the client suite from an IT perspective including video conferencing, aid with desktop support and handle calls from the service desk, set up equipment for new joiners, replace and update our equipment (hardware / software / mobile devices), printer / multi-functional devices and help us when we press the wrong button (or spill tea in our keyboard), and much more.
The list is by no means exhaustive and, as well as the day to day role. there will also be the opportunity to help with the upcoming refurbishment in our Plymouth office, so lots to get your teeth stuck in to. There will also be the opportunity to travel to other UK offices – getting to know the wider IT Team and firm, supporting other offices during rollouts and holiday cover for the level 2 team. The IT team are very hands on and you will get the opportunity to work with the wider IT Team delivering support, projects and initiatives, which will really help to broaden your wider IT knowledge.
What makes it so great to work here?
I mentioned we're award winning - in fact we've received recognition for our apprenticeship programme in the form of two awards recently reassuring you that the quality of support you'll receive here is second to none.
Secondly, we've worked hard and continue to work hard, to create an open culture that sets us apart from other firms. Our culture gives us much more of a human feel, emphasising that we're more than just suits! We like and make time for each other enabling us to establish professional relationships that become lasting friendships.
There are lots of extra-curricular activities to get involved in too; perhaps you're into charity fund raising, we love to see people keen to get involved with our corporate social responsibility strategy, so much so we'll even give you two days per year on us to get involved. And that's not all, alongside a competitive salary you'll receive a flexible benefits package so you can pick and choose between the benefits that matter most to you.
Most of all it's our people that make it a great place to work.
So you're interested but still have some questions?
This all sounds great but it's a big decision and you still have reservations, how can you be sure this is right for you? You can contact me to talk it through or you can read more about our other apprenticeships on our website.
You've made up your mind and want to apply.
If you're already sold what are you waiting for. You can formally apply via the apply now button below to upload your CV.
If you have some questions please contact me, Kita Cureton via email.
If this isn't the role for you (or the right time) why not connect with me on LinkedIn or follow us on Twitter to keep up to date with all of our opportunities. We also have a Facebook page.
Strictly no agencies – We are an in house recruitment team.

You'll be given all the time and support you need to study towards your Certificate in Facilities Services. (Level 2).

“I’ve not felt like an apprentice. I’ve felt like a member of the team.’
Brad – Junior Measurement Scientist
Put simply, the National Physical Laboratory helps set the standards by which everything is measured – combatting issues on a global scale such as climate change, curing diseases and the development of cutting-edge communications technology. At NPL, our apprentices are making their mark and getting involved in real projects, whilst developing invaluable skills and gaining qualifications. Passionate about their chosen field, they’ve chosen an apprenticeship as a way of getting ahead. And you could too.
Being an apprentice at NPL
As an apprentice, we’ll expect you to get involved in delivering ground-breaking science, metrology and engineering projects that have a global impact right from the very start – something that doesn’t faze you at all. That’s because you’ll be learning from industry experts who will blend practical experience with the kind of invaluable guidance and theory that will set you on track to gain your Level 3 Advanced Apprenticeship in either Science (a two-year programme), or Metrology (three years), or Engineering (four years). We’ll even support your development into Professional Institute Memberships. We’ll push and challenge you. But you’ll never feel out of your depth as we’re here to support you and fulfil your potential with us. From team-building and networking, to mindfulness, social evenings and team sports events at the NPL pavilion, we’ll give you the opportunities and skills you need to succeed.
What does it take to be an apprentice here?
Mostly, we’re looking for passion and potential. You need to genuinely want a career in science, engineering or metrology. So, if you’re a school leaver and have just completed either your GCSEs or A-Levels and want to get on, we’re excited to hear from you. Beyond that, we’re looking for someone who’ll thrive in an environment like ours. At NPL we learn from each other, respect each other and work together to do better. For ourselves and for our customers. And whilst we’re always looking to stretch beyond what we know, we don’t make things more complicated when there’s no need. Together, we’re helping make the impossible, possible.
About NPL
At NPL we learn from each other, respect each other and work together to do better. For ourselves and for our customers. And whilst we’re always looking to stretch beyond what we know, we don’t make things more complicated when there’s no need.
Diversity and well-being
As a national laboratory, we’re exploring even more commercial routes to market and that’s presenting us with greater opportunity – for you and us. Our success relies on the diversity and talent of our people, we strive to nurture and respect individuals to ensure everyone feels valued and supported to excel in their chosen field. This value is at the core of our organisation.
We believe in a culture of fairness by treating everyone on the basis of their own individual merits and abilities regardless of their own or perceived identity, background or any other factor irrelevant to a person’s work. At NPL we are committed to the health and wellbeing of our employees. Flexible working and social activities are embedded in our culture to create a positive work-life balance, along with a broad range of benefits (see our careers website for more information).
As part of our commitment to diversity & inclusion, we signed up to the Institute of Physics' Project Juno in 2015 as a Juno Supporter. NPL were proud to be awarded Juno Practitioner status in 2018. NPL also joined Stonewall as a Diversity champion in 2015, participating in their annual Workplace Equality Index for the equality of LGBT+ community at NPL. In 2018, NPL became a member of the Business Disability Forum and joined the disability confident scheme as level 1 committed employer.
To ensure everyone has an equal chance, we’re always willing to make reasonable adjustments to the recruitment process. If you would like to discuss, please contact us.
Please note we will be reviewing applications throughout the recruitment, so would encourage you to apply now. We will be publishing assessment centre dates in the next couple of weeks.
