As a company, we’re committed to welcoming the next generation to the electrical, mechanical, fire, security, and access sectors, and in creating new employment opportunities for local youngsters. We’re extremely proud to have offered permanent positions to every one of our apprentices – with many developing successful careers at Orton.

In fact, apprenticeships have been a cornerstone of Orton’s success since Andrew Lowe (a former Electrical apprentice himself) set up the business more than 34 years ago.

We work closely with several dedicated training providers, to offer apprenticeships each year to those interested in pursuing a career in the industry.

If you’d like to find out more, email a copy of your C.V. to [email protected] we will then be in touch regarding next steps.

We usually interview apprenticeship positions in July ahead of the academic year from September / October.

In 2013, Orton Group’s apprentice Mike Calleia represented the West Midlands at the Regional Training Awards and won the coveted title of Best Apprentice. Like most of our former apprentices, he chose to stay on at the company after completing and is now one of our Divisional Contract Managers, this is a testament to our progressive career opportunities and business culture.
