A housebuilder has opened applications for its latest apprenticeship scheme.

Bellway is offering 38 placements across England, Scotland and Wales as part of its 2026 apprenticeship programme.

The company is inviting applications for roles in bricklaying, groundworking and construction trades, with positions available in Cumbernauld, Hamilton and Renfrewshire.

Applications are invited for a trainee assistant site manager role in Renfrewshire, apprentice bricklayer and groundworker positions in Cumbernauld and a customer care apprentice post in Hamilton.

Opportunities are also available in the East of Scotland, including a trainee assistant site manager in Whitecraig, a customer care apprentice in Livingston and an architectural apprentice in Livingston.


She said: “It really is better than college in my opinion.

“You can be earning right away.

“When you are on the job you are learning from real-life experience which you wouldn’t get anywhere else.”

She was named Bellway’s Apprentice of the Year in 2024 and now works as a trainee assistant site manager at the company’s Hedworths Green development at Lambton Park.


“An apprenticeship with Bellway is a valuable opportunity to build a career with one of the country’s largest housebuilders.

“The programme allows learners to develop their skills and ultimately become expert, accomplished and confident in what they do – all while earning money and gaining first-hand experience of the industry.

“Bellway is committed to being an employer of choice and that means giving our people the opportunities and the support they require to develop and progress.

“We are looking for highly motivated people who want to grow and learn.

“Whether you are a school leaver or someone who is already in the workforce and looking to pivot towards a new industry or a new type of skill, we want to hear from you.”

Those looking to apply for positions in the 2026 apprenticeship programme have until Sunday, March 15 to apply.
