National Apprenticeship Week 2025

This week we’re recognising and celebrating our existing and qualified apprentices and how they shape our skilled, inclusive and future-ready workforce.  Apprenticeships provide practical on the job training mixed with classroom-based learning and the theme for this year’s National Apprenticeship Week is Skills for Life.

This week, we also welcome Rhianna Hawkins to SAS who will be joining the Sales team as a Portfolio Apprentice at Reading. Rhianna will be starting her Level 3 Business Administration apprenticeship.

“Our apprenticeship schemes are a key part of our commitment to building a strong talent pipeline and fostering a diverse and inclusive workforce. By investing in apprenticeships, we aim to develop future leaders, nurture fresh perspectives, and ensure sustainable growth for SAS”.  Bethan Grant, Head of HR 

We’re proud to have 10 current apprentices at SAS. Watch the videos below to meet some of them!
