Sheffield Forgemasters has stepped up its drive to recruit 21 apprentices for 2025, with a further six opportunities now available. The expansion is the second of two tranches of recruitment for 2025, as the company drives forward a £900 million investment to build a new 13,000-tonne forging line and a 30,000m
2 ‘state of the art’ machining facility. Successful applicants will join the Ministry of Defence-owned company to participate in an award-winning apprenticeship scheme to build skills for the future.
Emily Baldwin, people development advisor – early careers at Sheffield Forgemasters, said: “This year’s early careers vacancies have been unique and we are able to offer some new opport — both close for applications on 27 April. We are also going to be expanding our graduate programme with two more roles, one in continuous improvement, and the other in finance.
“Further to these, a sales degree apprenticeship will also be going live in the next few weeks. We have had an amazing uptake so far for our apprenticeship and trainee positions and we urge any prospective applicants for the new positions to keep an eye on our careers page and apply as soon as they are able.”
