Warehousing and Storage Operative Level 2 Apprenticeship
“I would recommend an apprenticeship to anyone, regardless of their age, as it is a very good way to start your career and excel. Since I graduated from XPO Logistics’ Red Apprenticeship programme, I’ve secured a permanent role as a Step Up Training Instructor working in the Goods In department. I’m enjoying my job and I hope to progress to a management role in the future.”

Warehousing and Storage Operative Level 2 Apprenticeship
“With an apprenticeship you get a whole different perspective of how a business works. You get to look at things from the angle of the team leader, from the admin department and from many other points of view – it is a real mind opener. So far the apprenticeship has been very informative and I’ve found the theoretical side of it really interesting.”
