The games industry is an incredibly hard industry to get into. Part of the reason for us taking on apprentices was to give young people the break they needed.

What can an apprentice do for you?
Apprenticeships are often the best way to find motivated, aspiring and inspiring individuals that you can ‘home grow’ to add value to your business and its culture in the short and long-term.
We specialise in apprenticeships that can support creative thinking in your business. In 15 years as a not-for-profit business, we have placed over 800 apprentices with employers of every size, in every sector, with 85% of those apprentices going on to secure full-time positions.
Your business could be part of that success story.
A lot of people coming into the marketplace we’re not as skilled as I would like them to have been. I realised that with an apprenticeship would be ideal as they could get training on the job. This would allow them to be taught the ARK way of learning
Working with Creative Alliance has been a game changer for how we take on apprentices at Global. The team have been a real partner for us to explore the right fit programmes, to make sure our learners are reaching their full potential. From onboarding, to our apprentices passing their EPA – and everything in between has felt seamless!
Talent Development Manager
Apprenticeships made simple – Creative Alliance managed everything from finding, placing and training our Marketing Apprentice, they are absolutely amazing and an invaluable part of our team. Thank you so much!
We partnered with Creative Alliance in 2022 and have been super impressed so far! From initial brief through to our recruitment event and eventually onboarding our learners – the process and support has been brilliant. Creative Alliance have genuine care for their learners and offer wonderful support to their employer partners!
Head of Talent Acquisition
Brilliant at every step of the way. We’ve been kept up to date with applications, screenings and been provided with a list of ready to interview candidates that would have taken us an age to compile. We have also been impressed how CA have contacted us after each interview to see how the meetings went. Excellent service
We are now on our 4th apprentice and it’s having a great impact. Not only is it bringing youth into the company, it’s brought a fresh perspective.
…they gave a first class recruitment service. Everything was presented to us in a timely manner and we were given a great account of each individual and why they thought they would fit with us. The whole recruitment process was quick & easy.
We’ve worked with Creative Alliance since BBJ&K was founded 7 years ago, as we believe in growing talent and shaping futures within our organisation. Creative Alliance offer great apprentices and manage them throughout the entire process to ensure they reach their potential. We’ve just taken on 3 new apprentices and have, in some instances, developed previous apprentices through to director level; so we really believe in the apprenticeship program.

Funding
As a non-levy employer 100% of the funding for the training is funded by the government for learners who are 16-18 at the start of the apprenticeship. If the apprentice is 19 at the start of the apprenticeship 95% of the funded is paid by the UK government. For example: Digital Marketer has a training value of £11,000 so that’s £10,450 to £11,000 of free training for your business. If you’re a levy employer (employers with a payroll in excess of 3 million per annum), please see our Levy Guide
Recruitment
At Creative Alliance we know how time-consuming and costly it can be to recruit the right staff to your business. We will advertise your vacancy, screen applicants and pre-interview potential candidates to ensure you only interview the most appropriate people for your specific role – all free of charge – saving you time and money.
