Job Details


Mechanical Maintenance Technician Level 3 Apprenticeship

Have you always had that knack for practical, hands-on tasks? Did childhood hobbies see you taking things apart and putting them together? Are you often curious about how things are made and why things work?

If so, perhaps Mechanical Maintenance engineering is your career call. Earn as you learn, combining college study for a Level 3 in England/Wales or a Level 6 in Scotland Maintenance Technician Apprenticeship with industry experience at the largest independent construction materials group in the UK.

Breedon is a home for inquisitive learners. Quarries, cement, and construction are no longer old-fashioned sectors. We’re providing the foundation for our lives, building the places where we live and work, play and in-between. 

Interested in…?

  • Being paid to go to college; earn as you learn, without having to ‘work the time back’
  • Achieving a Level 3 Advanced Apprenticeship in England or a Level 6 in Scotland, in a sought-after engineering discipline
  • Full company funding of any fees for qualifications and training
  • No need to buy your own kit or any work equipment; it’s all on us
  • 40 hours per week, rising to 48 on completion of the 4-year apprenticeship’
  • A competitive salary significantly higher than the national minimum wage for apprentices
  • Support from a community of apprentices; a collaborative and comprehensive induction 
  • A huge variety of potential career progression pathways at a stable, thriving business

As an Apprentice Mechnical Maintenance Technician, you’ll support the vital need to uphold quarry and cement site production. 

  • You’ll be dismantling, examining, replacing, and reassembling mechanical and electrical systems and components. 
  • Servicing and maintaining equipment.
  • Working on yellow machinery to equipment that deals with dust; there will be lots to learn.

If you’re one to tiptoe around puddles with trepidation, maybe this role isn’t for you. You won’t be spending every day in a clean, corporate office swivelling on an office chair! If you have a natural affinity with the great outdoors, in all weathers, then now we’re talking!

Do You Offer…?

  • At least five GCSEs, grades 4-9/A-C or National 5’s including Maths and English
  • A demonstrable interest in engineering – via education and/or work experience

In joining us, you won’t be thrown in the deep end or treated like just a number; you’ll work in a close-knit team, with someone always on hand to offer help.

Why Breedon…? 

Here’s what one of our existing employees want to tell you…

If you enjoy practical, hands-on work, and if you want to learn new skills supported by an experienced friendly team, my advice is to give it a go!”
