About Us

Apprentices

Manthorpe have a continued apprentice programme. The first nine months is spent “off the job” at the purpose built Rolls-Royce training facility on Wilmore Road, Derby.

On successful completion of the first year Performing Engineering Operations training, the new recruits return to Manthorpe to continue for the next three years “on the job” training within the engineering facilities.

In addition to this, the apprentices attend day release college at Derby once a week eventually receiving their EAL Advanced Diploma in Engineering.Our apprentice training is centred on a manual basis. This gives our apprentices good machine shop practice, allowing them to develop core engineering principles.
