About this service

What is Apprentice Recruitment?

Finding a motivated, trade-ready apprentice takes time you often don’t have. ATT’s Apprentice Recruitment service handles the sourcing, screening, and shortlisting so you can focus on your business.

We draw from a pipeline of candidates who have expressed genuine interest in a trade career — not just job seekers looking for any opening. Every candidate is assessed for work-readiness, attitude, and fit before we present them to you.

Whether you’re recruiting for your own direct employment or looking to enter the Group Apprenticeship Scheme, ATT’s recruitment service gives you a strong start with the right person.
