Apprentice Designer

Are you creative, hard working and eager to build a long-term career in a modern, fast‑paced manufacturing environment? We’re looking for a motivated Design Apprentice to join our Design Team at SW Diss (located in Pulham St Mary). This apprenticeship offers an exciting opportunity to gain hands-on experience in corrugated packaging design. As our Design Apprentice, you will support the Design Team by undertaking a range of routine tasks as well as undertaking a BSc (Hons) in Packaging Design and Technology through Sheffield Hallum University. You will apply the skills and knowledge developed throughout the apprenticeship programme under appropriate supervision and as the apprenticeship progresses, take on a wider variety of tasks. This is a hands on role where you will be learning at the same time as carrying out a variety of tasks associated with the design of corrugated packaging. This role is physically demanding, requiring the moving, cutting and packing for shipment of materials on a daily basis. As an apprentice, you'll assist in developing packaging concepts, creating prototypes, and collaborating with various teams from concept to production, ensuring functionality, cost-efficiency, and sustainability.
