We welcome individuals from all backgrounds who are adaptable, have a passion for problem-solving and a strong desire to learn and grow. As a Project Management Apprentice, you’ll need to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment, demonstrating excellent communication and interpersonal skills to foster a collaborative spirit. Critical and analytical thinking will be essential, as you leverage data-driven insights to navigate complex business challenges. An eye for detail and the ability to multitask will empower you to seamlessly juggle project timelines, budgets, and resource allocation. Equally important, is your ability to think strategically, aligning project objectives to broader organisational goals. Adaptability and a growth mindset are a must, as you’ll be expected to navigate shifting priorities and embrace new technologies or methodologies along the way. Your innate curiosity should drive you to continually expand your expertise, sharing knowledge to uplift and empower your cross-functional teammates.

Here at Amazon, it's in our nature to learn and be curious. Within this apprenticeship you’ll have the opportunity to learn by doing, putting newfound knowledge into practice every day. Our first-class coaching, tailored development opportunities, and challenging, rewarding work will empower you to reach new heights. If you’re a curious learner eager to grow, this is your chance to unlock your full potential and build the future you envision.

You will gain a vast range of useful experiences and skills whilst working towards the BSc (Hons) degree in Project Management. As a working student your focus is to complete your studies in your 20% off the job time by learning and developing your skills, knowledge and behaviours to work towards successful graduation. Please note: As part of your off-the-job learning, you may be required to travel to a training centre. This location may differ from your primary work base. Candidates should be prepared for occasional travel as part of the apprenticeship programme. You will be set objectives and goals by your training provider and manager to support your studies.

You will build your skills over a 42-month period, starting in September. These skills will help you develop personally and professionally. Your apprenticeship will be made up of classroom/virtual based training to cover knowledge, on-the-job training at your Amazon base location, online learning as well as mentoring from our experienced team members.

You'll join a diverse and passionate team working alongside customers, business users, suppliers, product owners, software developers, testers and senior leaders. We value different perspectives and experiences, and we're dedicated to creating an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive. Our employee-led affinity groups including communities for women in tech, LGBTQ+ employees, and underrepresented minorities, foster a culture on inclusion that empowers us to be proud of our differences.
