Manufacturing Work Experience - Bolton 2026
Work experience is a great way to consider your career choices and give you a better view of opportunities available on our Early Careers Schemes.
You'll get a taster of the possibilities of placements on offer and a chance to gain an insight into the company / industry through working with current employees.
Students will have the opportunity to see different aspects of our manufacturing site by completing 5 different one-day placements. There will be a mix of practical and office based work.
We're committed to being an inclusive workplace and work experience can be the first opportunity for you to try a career that you may not have considered previously.
