About the Role
About the Proper Jobs: Fresh Start Programme
We are launching our Proper Jobs: Fresh Start Programme, offering 1,000 new apprenticeships by 2030 to people who want to develop their careers.
The programme lasts for up to 2 years and combines learning in the workplace, formal off-the-job training, and online learning.
About the Job Role
You will start by working as a Morrisons Customer Assistant for 13 weeks, before progressing to a 12-month apprenticeship in Fishmongery. If you successfully complete your apprenticeship and assessments, you could then progress to the Sir Ken Morrison Leadership School, a six-month programme that can kickstart your journey into retail management.
Fishmongers are critical to the Morrisons Market Street offer. Through the apprenticeship, you will learn to cut, fillet, scale and skin fish, and gain knowledge about different fish species and preparation methods.
You will provide a friendly and helpful service to customers while developing through your apprenticeship programme. This is an excellent opportunity for individuals looking to start their career and gain qualifications while earning.
No previous experience is required, as full training and support will be provided. You will need the ability to be trained to use the equipment required and to prepare fresh items.
What happens at the end
Upon successful completion of your apprenticeship and assessments, you could progress to the Sir Ken Morrison Leadership School.
