Civil Engineering Apprentices
SECTION 1: OVERVIEW With a minimum of 3,000 new civil engineers needed to ensure the successful delivery of Project Ireland 2040, the National Development Plan 2026–2035 and Climate Action Plan 2025, an alternative delivery model for civil engineering needed to be developed to entice stronger uptake of the profession. As a profession listed on the critical skills occupation list, additional approaches for recruitment in this field are needed to address challenges in the public sector. To aid in this objective, the technological university sector has engaged with the local authority sector to develop a programme where new entrants to engineering disciplines can gain suitable academic qualifications while also engaging in workplace-based learning. Cork County Council in partnership with Munster Technological University (MTU), is offering an opportunity for a civil engineering apprenticeship. This structured apprenticeship program leads to a Level 6 qualification after two years, with the opportunity to progress to Level 7 with one additional year of study. There is also a potential pathway to Level 8, offering a full progression route in civil engineering. This is an exciting new initiative, creating an alternative career path to the civil engineering profession in Ireland based on an earn and learn model. The civil engineering apprenticeship programme is planned to be transformational, and, over time, bridge the shortfall in supply of engineers in Ireland, providing those skills critical to the delivery of Project Ireland 2040. Designed to develop the skills, knowledge and competencies to meet the future needs of the industry, this programme will appeal to those seeking to build a career in civil engineering. SECTION 2: THE ROLE This apprenticeship would suit candidates with a strong interest in civil engineering, construction and infrastructure. The role provides an opportunity to combine structured academic study with practical, on-the-job learning in a local authority environment. Civil engineering apprentices will be assigned to the Capital Delivery Directorate, Housing Directorate, Planning & Environment Directorate or Roads, Transportation & Area Services Directorate. SECTION 3: TASKS / RESPONSIBILITIES The post holder may be required to perform other tasks/responsibilities as deemed appropriate by the relevant mentor or Director of Service. Additionally, apprentices will attend on-campus labs/workshops in MTU one full day (8 hours) every three weeks. During the period between June and August each year, when there are no online lectures or on-campus labs/workshops, the working week is a 35-hour week , Monday to Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. All hours worked will be subject to the provisions of the Organisation of Working Time Act, 1997 and the Organisation of Working Time Act (Regulations) 2001 . SECTION 9: ANNUAL LEAVE The annual leave entitlement will be 22 working days per annum . Cork County Council's leave year runs from 1 January to 31 December . The granting of annual leave at any particular time is always subject to the requirements of the Council and all annual leave is liable to suspension during periods of exceptional work pressure. Granting of annual leave, payment for annual leave and arrangements for public holidays will be governed by the provisions of the Organisation of Working Time Act, 1997 (as amended) .
