Work
Most of your apprenticeship is spent working. You’ll learn on the job by getting hands-on experience.
What you'll do at work
Cundall’s Building Services team’s mission is to play a key role in making buildings more energy efficient, sustainable, and cost effective to operate – and we pride ourselves on our exemplary track record of designing innovative and sustainable mechanical and electrical solutions, that minimise the use of natural resources.
The Building Services team are a source of world leading expertise – and offer a pro-active and collaborative approach to skill development, and professional excellence.
The Role:
This is an excellent opportunity for an aspiring Building Services Technician to join our London office to learn what it takes to carry out the design of building services on some of the most exciting built environment projects in the UK and worldwide.
Joining the Building Information Modeling (BIM) team you will:
- Learn how to coordinate the use of BIM throughout the design stages
- Work closely with colleagues across our multi-disciplinary practice ensuring that BIM models are accurate, consistent, and up to date
- Under the guidance of our team of experienced technicians, we’ll equip you with understanding BIM processes and standards so that you can support with training project team members on BIM software and workflows and facilitating communication and collaboration between different disciplines
- Also learn how to develop BIM Models effectively for other required documentation such as COBie data or classification systems
As you develop your technical engineering skills with us on real-life projects, working four days of the week with one day-release to study for the appropriate academic qualifications at London South Bank University.
The Skills:
To qualify for the apprenticeship standard:
- A Level EEE - Must include Mathematics and preferably a Science in either Chemistry or Physics (UCAS points: 48)
- T-level (Pass or above) in Construction: Design, Surveying and Planning. (UCAS points: 72)
- BTEC Level 3 Extended Diploma MPP in an Engineering subject area or Construction and Built Environment area (Must include Mathematics and Further Mathematics) (UCAS points: 64)
- BTEC Level 3 National Diploma MM in an Engineering subject area, with a minimum of merit in mathematics and Further Mathematics. (UCAS points: 64)
- Building Services Engineering Technician level 3 apprenticeship MP (UCAS points: 48) alongside grade Pass or Distinction at EPA
