Swindon-based Nationwide Building Society has started taking applications for its first apprenticeships in partnership with Swindon’s new Institute of Technology.

The society is recruiting apprentice roles in a range of tech-related areas including cybersecurity, software development and DevOps, offering more opportunities for people to start new careers in technology.

The IoT will be based on the New College North Star Campus, Swindon, and has been developed in partnership with local employers to deliver timely, relevant, and industry-based STEM – Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics – learning to its students.
