Graduate Development Program

Build your career in local government with our graduate development program.

In 2017, I started my Customer Service apprenticeship for Copeland Borough Council. Throughout my time as an apprentice, I worked with Lakes College to successfully complete a Level 2 Customer Service NVQ and an IT Functional Skills qualification.

At the end of my apprenticeship, I had an interview for a full-time job role within Customer Services, which I was successful in securing. Now, almost 7 years later, I am still very much enjoying my role within the Customer Services team.

Being part of the transition to Cumberland Council has been very interesting and my role is expanding daily. We are covering a wide range of services over the phone, face to face and via email. As a Customer Services Officer, I get great job satisfaction knowing I am helping so many customers every day.
