JMS Group (JMS Engineers and GC Robertson) is proud to support three of our apprentices – Alex, James, and Joseph H – as they begin their Civil Engineering degree apprenticeships at Anglia Ruskin University.
Investing in Future Talent
At JMS Group, we believe apprenticeships are more than just a qualification route. They are an opportunity to combine practical, hands-on experience with academic learning. By supporting our apprentices through degree-level study, we’re helping them build the knowledge, confidence, and skills they’ll need to shape the built environment of tomorrow.
Why Apprenticeships Matter in Civil and Structural Engineering
Degree apprenticeships in civil engineering are designed to:
Provide real-world project experience alongside classroom learning
Equip apprentices with technical and digital skills, from structural integrity to sustainable construction
Offer a salary while learning, making engineering careers more accessible
Lead towards professional accreditation and long-term career progression
This balance of study and work ensures that apprentices like Alex, James, and Joseph gain both the academic grounding and the practical problem-solving abilities demanded by the industry.
Our Commitment Across the Group
Supporting apprentices is central to JMS Group’s long-term strategy. By developing early-career engineers, we’re creating a strong foundation for the future of our business and the wider industry. Both JMS Engineers and GC Robertson are committed to providing:
Mentorship and guidance from senior engineers
Exposure to a wide variety of projects across residential, commercial, and civil engineering sectors
A culture that champions diversity, inclusion, and collaboration
Building Tomorrow’s Engineers, Today
Alex, James, and Joseph represent the next generation of structural and civil engineers. Their journeys will be supported every step of the way by colleagues across JMS Group, ensuring they can apply what they learn at university directly to live projects.
By investing in apprenticeships, JMS Group is not only supporting individual growth but also helping to secure the future skills our industry needs.
