This news follows the announcement made by Starbucks UK in November last year that Starbucks UK is on track to open 300 new stores and create 5,000 new jobs over the next five years.
The Starbucks apprenticeship is a qualification equivalent to five A-C GCSE grades. Recruitment will run throughout UK stores during the year and apprenticeship training will happen over 12 months, involving a combination of on the job, classroom and webinar based training.
Those that successfully complete the year-long scheme will be offered a permanent job with the company and the opportunity to shape their career in retail, dependent on their aspirations.
Mayor of London, Boris Johnson said: “This is stonking news from Starbucks and great for young Londoners. Providing apprenticeships is a win-win, offering a much needed foot onto the ladder of success for school leavers, whilst also being hugely rewarding for the companies involved.”
