Mears Group, in partnership with North Lanarkshire Council, is providing career opportunities to young people in the area and has taken on 20 new apprentices in 2022.
The successful applicants will get the chance to learn a range of trades and skills while also starting their careers with Mears. Mears has been employing apprentices in North Lanarkshire since 2011, and in that time has taken on more than 170 apprentices in the area.

The announcement of the new intake comes during Scottish Apprenticeship Week 2022 –hosted by Skills Development Scotland - when organisations across the country come together to share the value that apprenticeships bring not only to the individuals themselves but to employers and the wider Scottish economy.
