Royal Navy - Supply Chain Logistician Apprentice (Submariner) (Supply Chain Warehouse Operative) Royal Navy
Logistics is the backbone of the Royal Navy.

But being a logistician in the Submarine Service is different. Without you, the submarine wouldn’t – and couldn’t – be operational.

What will the apprentice be doing?
- You’ll learn all the skills you need to ensure your submarine has everything it needs to be operationally effective, regardless of the rigours of the highly classified mission you’re deployed on
- Learn about managing a complex global supply chain, and how to source the items you need, all over the world
- Learn additional skills as an Incident Board operator, helping damage-control teams fight fires and floods
A submarine’s first defence is stealth, so giving away its position is a huge consideration. Trips to the surface are for food supplies and your crewmates’ morale. These vital factors, and millions of pounds-worth of equipment, are in your hands.
What training will the apprentice take and what qualification will the apprentice get at the end?
Once your initial training is complete you will be qualified as Supply Chain Logistician (Submariner) (Supply Chain Warehouse Operative Apprenticeship) level 2. Functional skills if required.
After successfully completing your professional training, you will stay another four months at HMS Raleigh in the Submarine School. You’ll learn about submarine operations, including warfare, weapons, nuclear propulsion and escape training, and go to sea in a submarine. After this, there’ll be a test to check your knowledge. When you pass, you’ll earn your ‘Dolphins’ – the coveted badge of a qualified Submariner.
What is the expected career progression after this apprenticeship?
You’ll start your naval career as an Able Rate. With experience and further training, you could be promoted to Leading Hand and beyond. If you show the right commitment, skills, and academic ability, you could become a Commissioned Officer. Members of the Royal Navy are promoted on merit. Work hard and you can rise through the ranks
