Apprenticeships - our investment in the future

It’s been 250 years since the waterway network was first built. We will ensure our precious waterways are safeguarded for the next 250 years.

This is why it so important for us to invest in the skills of our workforce of the future. Apprenticeships are just one way in which we do this.

Our apprenticeship training programme offers a wide range of development opportunities which will see you gain new skills whilst working with teams of people who are passionate about the waterways and the work they do.

As well as hands-on and technical experience, you’ll acquire vocational and academic qualifications in your specialist area – in fact everything you need to build a successful career here at the Canal & River Trust.

Who are we looking for?

We are keen to attract highly motivated individuals who are able to demonstrate a practical, hands-on approach combined with enthusiasm, drive and determination
