ABOUT US

Ginger Nut Training is an independent training provider of apprenticeships and trains people at businesses across the country.

We used this unique insight to launch Ginger Nut Training, where we work closely with clients to cater for the needs of apprentices and employers. GNT now trains apprentices at some of the largest businesses in the country.
We are recruiting a motivated and committed Client Engagement Executive to support our clients throughout their apprenticeship journey, ensuring they receive the best support at all times.
