Essential construction materials provider Breedon Group have launched their 2026 apprenticeship programme, opening rewarding career pathways for anyone looking to gain new skills and grow within the industry.

As National Apprenticeship Week gets underway, the Group have announced roles ranging from site supervisor, plant operator and civil engineer through to customer service, operations manager and maintenance technician, available across England, Scotland and Wales.

Through their ‘Shape your Future’ campaign, Breedon are offering people, whether they’re a student, school leaver, or ready for a fresh start, an unrivalled opportunity to gain their first steps into the construction industry, working alongside experts at the FTSE250 construction group.

Dominic Konopka, group head of people development, at Breedon Group, said: ‘We’re really excited to be welcoming a new cohort of apprentices into the business, opening up a wide range of placements that give ambitious people a great career opportunity and introduce them to the diverse roles available across the construction industry.’

As well as providing all the necessary tools, kit and equipment, the programme also includes full funding for all training and qualification fees.

As a member of The 5% Club, which champions businesses to have at least 5% of their workforce in earn-and-learn roles, Breedon continues to invest in developing the workforce of tomorrow and creating meaningful career pathways for the next generation of talent.

Mr Konopka continues: ‘Apprentices bring fresh perspectives, energy and a real eagerness to learn, and they play such an important role in shaping the future of our industry.

‘We’re proud to offer a programme that gives apprentices hands-on experience, structured training and the support they need to build long-term careers with Breedon, whilst making a meaningful contribution to the business from day one.’
