Our 4-year Quality Assurance and Control Apprenticeship offers a fantastic opportunity to play a part in some of the UK’s most significant engineering projects. Based at our Rosyth site, you’ll learn how quality assurance and control underpin everything we do – from new ship construction to the careful dismantling of Royal Navy submarines. About the programme This apprenticeship is all about learning how quality shapes the success of every engineering project. You’ll join the Submarine Dismantling Programme (SDP) team, supporting the Ministry of Defence as we safely dismantle and process decommissioned nuclear-powered submarines. Along the way, you’ll also gain experience across other programmes, including Type 31 Frigates, Commercial Marine and Missile Tube Assembly work. You’ll start by learning the fundamentals of Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Control (QC), including how materials are traced, inspected and documented to meet strict standards. Over time, you’ll build skills in supplier management, inspection, corrective action processes and safety practices, developing a clear understanding of how quality fits into every stage of a project. As your knowledge grows, you’ll work with engineers, project teams and suppliers to check, verify and record progress, helping to make sure that everything we deliver meets the highest technical and safety requirements. It’s a role that makes a real impact on the safety, efficiency and reputation of our work.
