Level 3 Business Support Apprentice

Plymouth City Council is recruiting a Level 3 Business Support Apprentice to join the Community Connections team based at Ballard House, Plymouth. The apprentice will undertake process-driven administrative and customer-focused tasks, develop strong communication and IT skills (such as MS Office), maintain records, draft correspondence, and support day-to-day office functions.

You will work on projects, organise meetings and events, and be a point of contact across the organisation.

The role is a paid apprenticeship offering £21,600 per year (with a higher rate for age 21+), 37 hours per week and hybrid working arrangements. The apprenticeship includes off-the-job training supported by the local training provider and leads to a Business Administrator (level 3) qualification.

The apprenticeship starts on 5 January 2026 and runs for approximately 1 year 3 months.

Plymouth City Council is an equal opportunities employer and a Disability Confident Leader. They offer guaranteed interviews for eligible applicants who meet essential criteria and are disabled, care experienced, or recent Armed Forces Service Leavers.

Successful apprentices may be considered for permanent roles or progression to higher-level opportunities at the end of the apprenticeship.
