Apprenticeships

There are two main ways to become an apprentice at Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust.

Apprenticeships for existing staff

At CUH we are passionate about training and developing our staff. Many apprenticeship opportunities at all levels are offered to existing staff first. Therefore the best way to get onto one of our apprenticeship courses is to secure a job here first.

Take a look at our current vacancies and get in touch with the recruiting manager (whose details will be at the bottom of the advert) to find out if there are apprenticeship opportunities you could explore, should you be successful in applying for the role.

If we don’t currently have a vacancy you’re suited to, you can sign up to our job alerts to have any vacancies in areas of interest delivered directly to your inbox.

Direct Entry Apprenticeships

Usually these roles are available at entry level, so it will be the first time you have worked in this type of role, and therefore will gain all the training and experience on the job. We recruit to Business Admin, Customer Service and Nursing Apprenticeships at several points throughout the year. Some roles may only be once a year, such as science, pharmacy or carpentry apprenticeships, and all depend on service need (please note that if there are none currently available, you’ll be redirected to our current vacancies page).

To make sure you don’t miss any apprenticeship roles we advertise, you can sign up for our job alerts, and apprentice vacancies will be delivered directly to your inbox as soon as they appear on our site.

If you are still unsure, or would like to enquire about upcoming apprenticeships please contact apprentices@addenbrookes.nhs.uk or nursingapprentice@addenbrookes.nhs.uk
