Things to consider

The apprenticeship is in a fast-moving, high-stress manufacturing environment. Every care has been taken to ensure the safety and wellbeing of all workers and visitors at Roxane UK, but it is still a FMCG manufacturer with many pieces of large, heavy machinery (and all the risks therein). This apprenticeship is not for everyone.
