With the CAO offers taking centre stage from this Wednesday, Liebherr Container Cranes, the Killarney-based global leader in container handling cranes and automation technology, has reminded those seeking great career opportunities of its 2025 apprenticeship programme.
The initiative demonstrates the company’s strong commitment to developing young talent in the engineering industry.
For school leavers, this is an exceptional opportunity to enhance their skills, further their education and launch a promising career with Liebherr Container Cranes, all the while earning while learning.

Aspiring apprentices can choose from three disciplines:
- Electrical
- Mechanical Automation
- Maintenance Fitter or Metal Fabricator.
Each option promises a well-rounded training experience, blending hands-on practical learning at Liebherr facilities with classroom-based education. The 2025 programme builds on over 65 years of experience, ensuring recipients receive the very best education and training experience.

Liebherr apprentices get the opportunity to work on international projects at Liebherr sites worldwide. They broaden their horizons, gaining exposure and fostering collaboration. Additionally, successful candidates can participate in an apprentice exchange programme with sister companies in Nenzing, Austria and Rostock in Germany – an unparalleled opportunity to learn, earn and connect globally.
Alongside their Level 6 craft qualifications, participants also earn a Level 6 higher certificate in engineering. This provides a solid foundation for future academic pursuits, with many of our apprentices choosing to continue their education to degree level and beyond. Collaborating with SOLAS and the Munster Technological University, the apprenticeship ensures excellence in practical skills and in theoretical understanding.
Applications for the 2025 Liebherr Apprenticeship Programme close on August 31. Interested candidates should submit their up-to-date CV, academic results and a cover letter outlining their preferred role and motivations to apprenticerecruit.lcc@liebherr.com.
