Sodexo ranks in top 100 apprenticeship employers list
Abstract
Sodexo UK & Ireland has been recognised as one of the top 100 apprenticeship employers in the country, ranking 46th in the Department for Education’s 2025 list.

The rankings celebrate ‘outstanding’ apprenticeship employers across England who are providing high-quality opportunities, helping future apprentices, parents, and careers advisers identify leading programmes across multiple industries.

The ranking factors include the number and level of apprenticeship opportunities offered, completion rates, and overall satisfaction as shared by the apprentices themselves.

Sodexo offers a variety of apprenticeships including hospitality, catering, healthcare and prison custody. These range from Level 2 (GCSE equivalent) to Level 7 (degree level) schemes.

Bill Buchan, HR director, Sodexo UK & said: “This recognition is a testament to our commitment to developing talent and creating real career pathways. Apprenticeships are powerful tools for social mobility, and we’re proud to offer our colleagues the chance to grow, thrive and shape a career they’re proud of."

Apprenticeships play a central role in Sodexo’s social impact strategy. The organisation considers all vacancies and roles as apprenticeship opportunities wherever possible, demonstrating its commitment to creating varied career pathways and promoting social mobility.

Faye Szpytma, apprentice chef, added: “Joining Sodexo as an apprentice has completely changed my perspective on what a career can look like. I’ve gained so much confidence, real-world experience, and qualifications while being supported every step of the way. It’s incredible to see Sodexo recognised nationally for creating opportunities and backing apprentices like me to succeed."
