Domino launches Apprenticeship opportunities for 2025
February 10, 2025
A Cambridge company is announcing new opportunities for apprenticeships as it marks this year’s National Apprenticeship Week (10th-17th February).
Domino will be offering three roles – two within R&D Software at its Bar Hill headquarters and an engineering position at its Liverpool inks plant.
Since the company’s award-winning Apprentice Scheme was launched in 2016, 37 apprentices have benefitted from being able to earn whilst they learn at Domino, with several being nominated for national awards from industry bodies including Make UK and PPMA (the Processing and Packaging Machinery Association).
All apprentices are given a structured programme which starts with nine months spent on foundation modules and then a progression to six-monthly rotations in order to experience different areas of the business.
On-the-job training is complemented by day release study at a local college or a distance learning course.
Rosie Celentano, HR Adviser at Domino said: “We are delighted to be launching our 2025 apprenticeship opportunities with these three roles. We will be inviting applications during February and March with interviews in March-April and successful applicants will start with us in September.”
Domino has also strengthened its commitment to apprenticeships by joining an Apprenticeship Cluster programme, a new initiative from Automate UK to address skills shortages in the manufacturing industry.
Mark Gearing, Print System Director at Domino said: “The ground-breaking Apprenticeship Cluster program aims to deliver top-tier opportunities for young people through a collaborative approach, with reciprocal training, team building events and value-added projects to benefit both employees and companies.”
The existing cohort of apprentices at Domino are appreciating the chance to earn whilst they learn.
Liam Andrews said: “I have been able to dive into the world of manufacturing, working with real-world data and utilising course material to good practice.”
This is echoed by Charlie Stokes: “Domino has provided lots of opportunities and valuable career experience. Rotations are a big plus as I’m able to see different teams.”
Husain Mahomed has benefitted from working alongside studying. He says: “With the personal development plan, I aim to achieve certifications in different areas of the business and hope to gain memorable experiences whilst build a network of highly skilled professionals alongside completing a degree.”
