Lookers’ Chief Retail Operations Officer, Duncan McPhee, said: “Lookers is committed to apprenticeships as part of our continued investment to attract bright, young and ambitious talent into the business.

"We are delighted to offer 25 roles here in the North West, including Preston, Blackpool and Blackburn, as part of our national campaign to recruit 180 apprentices across the country, providing young people with the opportunity to build their confidence, skills and experience in a dynamic and continually evolving industry.

“The Lookers Apprenticeship Programme has enabled Lookers to develop many high calibre, talented individuals, many of whom have gone on to receive industry and national recognition in England, but the investment also demonstrates our confidence and ambition for the future despite the difficult challenges of this year.”

Apprentices will join the business across a variety of roles, including parts advisors, service technicians, body repairer technicians and customer service advisors.
