ASC has commenced its recruitment of new apprentices for the 2020 year at its Osborne and Henderson operations.
The company said it plans to appoint 13 new apprentices across electrical, fabrication (welding) and mechanical trades from February next year.
ASC chief executive Stuart Whiley said ASC’s next apprentice intake will gain a huge range of experience across the four-year program to 2024.
“This is an exciting opportunity to get involved in the future of Australian submarine building and the expanding naval shipbuilding industry in Australia,” said Whiley.
ASC is one of South Australia’s largest employers and most thorough trainers of apprentices, currently employing 53 apprentices across its 1,300-strong workforce.
"ASC is a centre of excellence in trade training and innovation. Apprentices can look forward to working on highly challenging assignments on Australia’s operational submarines – among the most complex military equipment currently maintained in Australia," the company said in a release.
