About this company
Who are NCC? We help manufacturers take on bigger challenges - whether that’s building cleaner aircraft, scaling up offshore wind, or strengthening the UK’s supply chains. We’re here to deliver practical outcomes, not prototypes that sit on shelves. Who we work with We work across 16 sectors, from defence and energy to infrastructure and space. Some projects are with global tier 1s, others with small UK firms solving one specific problem - the works always varied, and always real. What it’s like here We’re not a startup. We’re not a corporate. We’re a national centre with the kit, time and people to do the job properly. The teams are focused, the thinking is sharp, and you’ll be trusted to get on with it.
After this apprenticeship
The Level 3 qualification is a stepping stone into or within a support role, preparing you for positions such as:
- HR Assistant
- HR Administrator
- HR Coordinator
- L&D (Learning & Development) Administrator/Assistant
- Training Assistant/Coordinator
- Payroll Specialist/Administrator (often a related function)
In these roles, you will gain hands-on experience in core HR functions, such as maintaining employee records, supporting recruitment, assisting with payroll preparation, managing onboarding, and handling day-to-day employee queries.
