Incredible opportunities to work on Everton's new stadium project at Bramley-Moore Dock have been released.
The Learning Foundry have teamed up with the Blues, Laing O'Rourke and The Skills Centre to give local people a fantastic opportunity to work on the state-of-the-art process with 20 construction apprenticeship places on offer. The positions would be starting from August 2022 at an exciting time for the waterfront work.
Everton have been on site at Bramley-Moore Dock for almost a year, having begun enabling processes in the area in July 2021. Over recent weeks in particular fans have been dealt with a huge number of exciting updates as the framework of the stands has started to rise over the top of the dock walls.

And now there is an opportunity for local people - living in Liverpool, Sefton, St Helens, Halton, Knowsley or Wirral - to apply for these incredible apprenticeships. The positions are fully funded for people who live in those areas, are aged 19 or over and are claiming a benefit.
The Learning Foundry's post about the opportunity reads: "We've got 20 new construction apprenticeship vacancies in Formwork and Steel Fixing that will play a key role in the construction of the new Everton Football Club stadium with Laing O’Rourke starting in August 2022. You won't find this opportunity anywhere else!
"To have a chance of accessing this brilliant apprenticeship opportunity, you will need to enrol onto our pre-employment programme and we will support you to complete this successfully."
This is just an extremely small sample of the thousands of jobs that are expecting to be created across the course of the construction process at Bramley-Moore Dock.
Over recent weeks four huge tower cranes have been moved into place on the site to help with the next stage of the exciting progress. Large sections of the concrete superstructure are continuing to rise around all four corners of the proposed new ground and the steelwork is well underway, providing an early framework of what the stands are set to look like.
