LUXURY boat builder Sunseeker International is recruiting 50 technical apprentices at its Dorset shipyards.

The company, which is Poole’s biggest private employer, is offering offering apprenticeship pathways including carpentry, composites, mechanical engineering and electrical engineering. 

The apprenticeships are taught over four years at level three of the Regulated Qualifications Framework.

They include attendance at Bournemouth and Poole College’s Marine Technology Centre and on-the-job training at Sunseeker’s Poole and Portland shipyards.

Sunseeker says earning potential after the training is “highly competitive” and that many members of the company’s current leadership team started as apprentices.
