Siemens Mobility’s apprenticeship programme has welcomed 25 new individuals across the UK and Ireland. This latest intake contributes to the 175 apprentices currently on programme, building on the 150 who are already enrolled on different apprenticeship programmes.<\/p>\n

This commitment to developing talent is well-demonstrated at itsGoole Rail Village, where 35 of these individuals are situated, and apprentices are actively engaged in assembling Piccadilly line trains for Transport for London, thereby directly supporting Siemens Mobility\u2019s investment in UK rail industry skills.<\/p>\n

Mark Speed, general manager at Siemens Mobility\u2019s Goole Rail Village, said:<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re committed to creating a powerful pipeline of talent and a lasting legacy of skills for our business and the wider industry. That\u2019s why we have brought on board apprentices from the early days of the Goole project and continue to do so. This latest intake at Goole further contributes to our ongoing investment in developing young talent to help shape the future of the UK rail industry.<\/p>\n

\u201cApprentices in our earlier cohorts are already making a significant impact in their teams, here at Goole and elsewhere in the business, and it\u2019s fantastic to see their development and progress since joining us. We\u2019re excited to support our newest recruits as they begin their journey, and we can\u2019t wait to see what they all go on to achieve.\u201d<\/p>\n

Eighty percent of these trains will be assembled right in Goole, where Siemens also intends to assemble future battery bi-mode train orders for the UK. Goole Rail Village represents a significant investment of up to \u00a3240 million, creating up to 1,000 new jobs in the East Riding of Yorkshire, along with around 1,700 supply chain job opportunities. <\/p>\n

Apprentices will gain invaluable experience in diverse roles such as Mechanical Fitter, Engineering Fitter, Maintenance Support, Manufacturing Technician, and Warehouse Management, all while combining practical experience with theoretical knowledge from York College.<\/p>\n

Level 3 Engineering Fitter Apprentice Maisie Eastwood, 16, from Goole, shared her excitement:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe main thing that attracted me to Siemens was the opportunity to work on London Underground trains. The idea of helping to build something which thousands of people will benefit from every day is so exciting. Being from Goole, it\u2019s amazing to now have Siemens on my doorstep. It\u2019s crazy to think this small town that not many people have heard about is playing such a big part in the transport network! <\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough I\u2019m a female in an industry which is still quite male-dominated, I don\u2019t feel like I\u2019ve ever been treated differently. Everyone has been really supportive. One of my supervisors is a woman and I love seeing her briefing and leading the team \u2013 it\u2019s really inspiring having so many women in senior positions at Siemens to look up to.\u201d<\/p>\n

Siemens Mobility took on board the first cohort of apprentices in Goole in 2020 during the early stages of the Rail Village development. The majority of the first intake of 12 apprentices have progressed onto permanent roles within the business and are forging exciting careers with Siemens Mobility, at Goole and other locations.<\/p>\n
