Apprenticeship Funding Review

The Minister for Skills has written to Skills England about the apprenticeship funding bands reviews. This review aims to ensure that apprenticeship funding is allocated effectively. The review will look at the current funding bands and make recommendations for any changes. This could impact the way apprenticeships are funded in the future.

Public-sector hiring right now

GovJobs is tracking 24,037 open public-sector vacancies today, 10,440 of them added in the past seven days. Across the adverts that publish a salary, the median advertised starting figure is £34,665.

The organisations recruiting most heavily right now are Barchester Healthcare (429), Ministry of Justice (291), Cygnet Health Care (227) and Elysium Healthcare (207).

Geographically the roles cluster in North West (3,244), South East (3,126), West Midlands (2,889), London (2,617).

Training and apprenticeship routes are advertised alongside standard vacancies rather than separately, and often close earlier because intakes are fixed to a start date. Apply as early in the window as you can.

These figures are counted from the GovJobs index at the time you loaded this page, not from official statistics, and they change daily. They are our own analysis and are not part of the announcement summarised above.
