Upon successful completion of the apprenticeship qualification, you will be offered a permanent role with Peacock’s.

Manufacture of Insoles/Orthotics
Administration of Insoles/Orthotics
Potential 3D Designing on CADCAM
Stock Control

To be considered for this role you will have:
GCSE Grade 4 or above in English & maths
A keen interest in Design & Technology
Good hand/eye coordination and manual dexterity
A ‘can do’ attitude
A reliable and flexible attitude to your work
Good interpersonal and communication skills

Benefits include:
National Apprenticeship Wage, rising before the end of the apprenticeship programme
Day shift working – variety of shift patterns Monday to Friday
Life Insurance
Company Pension Scheme
Access to onsite gym
Wellbeing support, including access to a 24/7 counselling service
Perkbox Employee Benefits Platform
