ACHIEVE THE EXCEPTIONAL

You’ve picked the perfect time to take the first step on an extraordinary career path with JLR’s apprenticeship programme and be at the forefront of tomorrow’s technology. Experience first‑hand how innovation shapes the future of mobility. Arrive as you are. Achieve the exceptional.

Your journey begins here.

Our Digital and Technology Solutions Degree Apprenticeships are aimed at people who have a passion for learning and innovation.

Increasingly automated. Ever more sophisticated. This is the future our vision holds for our vehicles. As a Digital and Technology Solutions Degree Apprentice, you will implement technology solutions aligned to your pathway, to develop new products and services and increase productivity using digital technologies. JLR is a world leader in engineering – we make incredible luxury vehicles. Our aspirations are no different for Digital and Technology.

Our people, our teams and our culture are at the heart of everything we do. We are natives of the Agile and “Dev Ops” world and are here to solve complex technical challenges.

The Level 6 Digital and Technology Solutions Degree apprenticeship programme takes four years to complete and adheres to Skills England Digital and Technology Solutions Professional standard. For more details, please visit the Skills England apprenticeship standard webpage:
Digital and technology solutions professional / Skills England.

As an apprentice, you will develop the Knowledge, Skills, and Behaviours (KSBs) outlined in the apprenticeship standard. These will be assessed during your End Point Assessment (EPA), where you will demonstrate the competencies and skills you’ve gained throughout the programme.

Software is a key component of our future cars as the technology in vehicles continues to increase to meet customers’ evolving needs. Before the customer enters the car, technology identifies the key fob and their phone to recognise them and allow access. During their journey, software aids their driving with stability and assistance systems and provides a welcoming and refined user experience through in‑vehicle infotainment.

In short, software gives us our edge. It makes our thinking come alive in the real world. This pathway will show you how to design, build and test ground‑breaking software that really delivers. You’ll also learn how to integrate engineering principles that deliver superior analysis, development and built‑in security.

Along the way, you could work in any of the following functional areas:

• Digital Platform (DP) or Vehicle Platform (VP)

You will be asked to indicate your preference during the application process.

Hybrid working is potentially available, depending on the area and manager. JLR is a multi‑site business, and you’ll be required to spend time working with different departments at several locations.
