Are you looking for an apprenticeship close to home? Do you like problem solving? Do you like being part of a team? If so, Essity s Electrical Engineering Apprenticeship at Oakenholt Mill, Flint, could be for you. This is a fantastic opportunity to earn while you learn.
At Essity we manufacture and sell products that are used every day, we break taboos and challenge convention, all with the intention of breaking down barriers to health and well-being globally.
We own and manufacture many leading brands. Cushelle toilet tissue, Plenty kitchen roll and TORK are three of our leading tissue brands, all manufactured in the UK for use in the home and industry.

It takes a lot of people to make one toilet roll and our engineers and technicians play a key role in maintaining and improving our manufacturing equipment to do just that.
Join Essity as an Electrical Engineering Apprentice and you will have the opportunity to develop the skills and knowledge to become a qualified technician.
Our paper mill at Oakenholt contains a vast array of machinery and equipment. Our two paper machines are larger than a jumbo jet, and the machine speed is faster than the motorway speed limit. Key to its success is the reliability of the machinery, and you will learn how to fix issues and improve them to a high standard. Innovation and sustainability are important to us.
Our Engineering Apprenticeship is designed to create our engineers and technicians of the future - a great opportunity to launch your career.
