Join our award winning apprenticeship scheme

We’ve been running our award winning apprenticeship scheme since 2011, helping 65 young people embark on an exciting career with one of Britain’s most loved brands.

Over the past few years our apprenticeship scheme has got a lot of recognition. In 2015 we won the Large Employer Category at the Regional Finals of the National Apprenticeship Awards, and were ‘highly commended’ for the same category in 2016 & 2017.

In 2014, then-Prime Minister David Cameron visited our head office and factory, and commended Silentnight’s investment in UK manufacturing, product innovation and successful apprenticeship scheme. Our local MP, Andrew Stephenson, has also commended our apprenticeship scheme in the House of Commons.

Silentnight is a certified Superbrand - which is a list of the biggest and best brands in the UK.

We’ve also been recognised as one of the top 100 companies providing apprenticeships nationally.

Our apprenticeships last 2 years, and allow apprentices to go into a range of different and exciting areas, such as manufacturing, junior management, warehousing, HR, IT and finance.

All apprentices are supported by a college or training provider to ensure they gain a nationally recognised qualification at the end of the two year programme.

The rest of the time is spent working in our head office based in Barnoldswick, Lancashire to gain valuable work experience to become an indispensable member of the team
