Our apprenticeship programme
Skilled HVDC cable jointers are in short supply in the UK, especially at the scale needed for our Hunterston facility. To bridge this gap, we are partnering with Ayrshire College to develop world-class cable jointers through dedicated training, with the opportunity to gain a Modern Apprenticeship (MA) in Engineering.
We are proud to offer a pathway into a high-tech, green industry—equipping the next generation with the skills to support the future of HVDC subsea cable manufacturing in the UK.
At the beginning of their journey to becoming a certified XLCC cable jointer, our apprentices will undertake progressive training in low voltage (LV), medium voltage (MV) and high voltage (HV) AC cable jointing and accessory preparation. Working with industry specialized supervisors and trainers, they will gain experience and knowledge in cable peeling, stripping, cutting, straightening, welding and heating, as well as ferrule pressing, and workshop practices.
Our apprentices will work from the XLCC Training Academy, located in Irvine, North Ayrshire, to carry out a three-year training plan taking them through theoretical and practical training required to obtain certification in 66kV AC, 110kV AC, 230kV AC, 320kV DC and 525kV jointing.
