About this employer
We design and build workspaces that work harder for your business. Hull has spent the last decade reinventing itself. As an office refurbishment company in Hull, we get to play a part in that. We know how space shapes the way people work. Good design doesn’t just look good. It changes what’s possible for your team.
We combine practical thinking with creative problem-solving. The result is commercial office fit outs and interior design solutions that fit how you actually work. Not how a brochure imagines it.
After this apprenticeship
As your knowledge, skills and confidence develop, there will be opportunities to take on additional responsibilities and progress within the business, with the potential to develop into a Trainee Quantity Surveyor role as part of your longer-term career progression.
