AI & Automation Apprentice

Location: Bristol (Hybrid – mainly onsite, with some flexibility)

Salary: £19,000 PA

Apprenticeship: AI & Automation / Digital Systems (Level 3/4 equivalent)

This isn’t one of those apprenticeships where you’re sat quietly “learning” while everyone else does the interesting stuff.

You’ll be right in the middle of it, helping us build smarter systems, automate the boring bits, and bring AI into recruitment in a way that actually makes sense.

We sit at the crossroads of recruitment, tech, and making things work better.

You’ll be working with tools like Bullhorn, automation platforms, and AI systems - figuring out how to save time, reduce chaos, and make people’s jobs easier.

No fluff. No “synergy.” Just real work, real impact, and a steep learning curve (the good kind).

What You’ll Be Doing

Automation & Systems

  • Help build and improve automated workflows (Bullhorn, Zapier, Power Automate, etc.)

  • Test things, break things (accidentally), then fix them properly

  • Spot inefficiencies and suggest smarter ways of doing things

  • Keep systems running smoothly and flag issues early

AI (The Useful Kind)

  • Support how we use AI in recruitment (matching, screening, productivity)

  • Help improve prompts and outputs so they’re actually… good

  • Learn what “responsible AI” looks like in real life (not just buzzwords)

  • Sense-check ideas before we automate something we shouldn’t

Process & Improvements

  • Look at how teams currently work and ask: why is it like this?

  • Help roll out better ways of working across the business

  • Work with recruiters and team leads to understand their day-to-day

  • Turn messy processes into something cleaner, faster, and more useful

Data & Performance

  • Track how systems and workflows are performing

  • Help spot patterns, issues, and opportunities to improve

  • Support reporting and insights (no scary spreadsheets, promise… okay maybe a few)

Training & People Stuff

  • Help people actually use the systems we build

  • Deliver simple training sessions (1:1 and small groups)

  • Create guides, FAQs, and “how-to” docs that people will actually read

  • Be confident chatting to people across the business — not hiding behind a screen

Ideal Candidate

  • Curious about AI, tech, and how things work

  • Not afraid to ask questions (even the “obvious” ones)

  • Good at problem-solving and spotting patterns

  • Confident talking to people — you won’t be working in a corner

  • Able to explain things simply without sounding like a robot

  • Organised and can manage your time without being chased

  • Comfortable picking up new tools and systems quickly

  • Positive, proactive, and up for a challenge

  • Bonus points if you secretly enjoy fixing inefficient processes or saying “there has to be a better way to do this”

What You’ll Learn

  • How AI and automation actually work in a business (not just theory)

  • How to design workflows that save time and reduce manual work

  • The right way to use AI — ethically, responsibly, and effectively

  • How to analyse processes and improve them properly

  • How to work with stakeholders and bring people on the journey

  • How to turn technical ideas into something anyone can understand

The Kind of Person This Is Perfect For

  • You like figuring things out

  • You’re a bit techy (or want to be)

  • You don’t just accept “that’s how it’s always been done”

  • You’re happy talking to people, not just working solo

  • You want a role where you actually make a difference

Perks

  • 20 days holiday + bank holidays

  • Christmas shutdown

  • Extra day off for your birthday (because obviously)

  • Real responsibility from day one

  • Proper development, not just ticking apprenticeship boxes
