Celeros FT is a global organisation with over 150 years’ experience in the flow control technology trade. It continues to set industry benchmarks for performance and reliability within multiple sectors, including: Oil & Gas, Power, Chemical Processing, Water Treatment and Marine.

Operating in over 120 countries with 1600 employees, Celeros Flow Technology is offering an excellent opportunity to join its renowned Apprenticeship Scheme and gain a Level 3 Engineering Technician Apprenticeship Standard. This long-standing scheme has had great success over the years and provides a knowledge and understanding of multiple areas throughout the business. The Level 3 Technician Standard is delivered through a blend of training, with one day a week at Doncaster College and the remainder through work-place training. We have several sites across the UK, including: Newbury (Berkshire),Worksop (Nottinghamshire) and Winsford (Cheshire).

Scott Brown, Inside Sales & Applications Engineer, left school in 2008 and immediately began an apprenticeship with Celeros:

"I joined in 2008 straight from school as one of four apprentices. As part of the Apprenticeship, I moved into various areas of the business – Assembly bays for various products, Manual & CNC machine areas, Contracts & Aftersales, Internal Projects and completed the Apprenticeship in Purchasing, where at different times, I bought all products across all the brands - Fabricated items, castings, machined components, seals, fastener equipment and handled external processes like plating, coating and heat treatments.

“I was fortunate to get the opportunity to join the Sales team a little over two years ago, and now sell one of our products, into various industries across the world."

Cheryl Barrick, Director of Engineering and Projects started as an apprentice and shows how opportunities arise regularly at Celeros:

"I started working with the company as an 18-year-old following a technical apprenticeship route in the engineering team achieving ONC and HNC in mechanical engineering through day release at college.

“After becoming a qualified design engineer, I had the opportunity to experience other areas of the business which led to management roles in engineering, projects and as post order site lead including manufacturing. At Celeros, the business is continually evolving, and employees are given the opportunity to evolve with it.

“I have been in my current role for 2 years with responsibility for 3 UK sites, Killarney in Ireland, and Ocala in Florida. I have a great team of project managers and engineers and learn new things every week which continue to help me develop both personally and professionally.”
