A new group of apprentices are being sought by Lichfield District Council .
The local authority is looking for four business analysts to embark on an 18-month programme.

A recruitment day will take place on 19th September, but applications must be made by 13th September.
Simon Fletcher, chief executive of Lichfield District Council, said:
“We are thrilled to offer more apprenticeship opportunities.
“Eight joined us in April and they have made a huge impact, bringing energy and new skills to our services.
“The business analyst apprentices will help us deliver our services more effectively and efficiently so that we can become more resident and customer-focused.
“Attracting younger people or those seeking different career paths with the council is a key priority for me and I look forward to welcoming applicants to our recruitment day later this month.”
