Why Join Arm?

We’re one of the world’s leading tech companies, with more than 40 locations in 19 countries, and our technology spans everything from the no. 1 supercomputer to the micro:bits used in thousands of schools worldwide.

 

But, unlike many technology companies, we’re not big on hierarchy – so if you have a new concept, a project to pitch or a different approach to a problem, we want to hear about it. We nurture an entrepreneurial approach at every level, welcoming all perspectives to see opportunities and solve problems. After all, here at Arm, ideas are within our DNA.

 

As well as our expansive digital-first approach, you can expect a truly rewarding experience. Plus a whole range of great Arm benefits – including 25 days holiday, comprehensive health care and a competitive salary.

 

Who We’re Looking For

Our Apprentices come to us from a variety of backgrounds and subject areas. Many are school or college leavers taking their first steps in tech, but we also welcome people with broader life experience, and career changers who may have gained experience in a different field and are eager for a new challenge.

 

Formal qualifications aren’t the most important factor. What we look for in our Apprentices is passion, potential and, above all, curiosity.

 

We want people who can show us why they’re interested in working in tech, how they imagine their future, and specifically why they think Arm is the right place for them.

 

Entry requirements
To apply for this program you need:

  • To hold, or be on track to achieve 104 UCAS points by September 2025. (Equivalent of BCC at A-level) BTEC's, Level 3 qualifications and International baccalaureate are welcome. Please use the UCAS points tariff calculator to translate your qualifications.
  • GCSE Maths & English at Grade C/4 or above (or equivalent qualifications)
  • The UK government requires that you have lived in the country for at least three years and have obtained permission from the UK government to reside in the country (not for educational purposes) to be eligible for apprenticeship funding. Alternatively, you can qualify if you have pre-settled or settled status.

Please note: To be eligible for an apprenticeship, you have to be gaining new skills and therefore cannot apply for an apprenticeship in a subject area that you already have a degree in.
