Job description

What you will do in your working day

Our Finance Apprenticeship provides significant responsibility and exciting opportunities for career progression.

From day one, you will have a dedicated mentor who understands your business area and will support you throughout your development. You'll work on interesting projects, collaborate with key stakeholders, and deliver tangible outputs that make a difference. 

Throughout your apprenticeship, you will gain exposure to new environments and develop skills that will kickstart your career in business finance: 

• Creating and interpreting information
• Effectively communicating information to stakeholders
• Proactively managing personal development
• Working under tight deadlines and adapting to changing priorities
• Coordinating with others to meet deadlines and changing priorities
• Produce quality and accurate information
• Apply accounting and tax knowledge
• Consistently deliver high-quality and accurate data and information. 

You'll enjoy placements across a wide range of areas including Submarines, Warships, Naval Bases, Contract Management and IT projects, offering variety and insight into our operations.  

The training you will be getting

• Professional accounting or taxation technician

As an apprentice, you'll spend your time onsite at HM Naval Base Devonport, attending virtual training sessions, and receiving onsite visits from our training provider to assess your progress. 

From the start, you'll be working towards an AAT (Association of Accounting Technicians) qualification, which will equip you with the necessary skills and knowledge for your role.

As you work through your apprenticeship you will have the ability to gain varying levels of AAT qualifications (depending on your starting point). By the end of your apprenticeship, you may hold Level 2, Level 3 and Level 4 AAT qualifications. 

You'll be enrolled in a finance-focused course and assigned a dedicated study tutor. The course covers a wide range of topics, including software, costing, and bookkeeping, with end-of-topic exams every few months. 

These exams contribute to your overall grade at the end of the year. 
With access to high-quality resources and flexible learning options, this programme allows you to apply what you learn directly to your daily work at Babcock. 

It's an excellent opportunity to combine practical experience with academic study and enhance your educational journey.
