Graduate scheme.
Discover the steps.

In your first two months, you learn the ropes of the operational landscape and you become integrated in the business.

Key activities include:

• Gaining relevant certifications: You take training courses to get the certifications you need to start being involved in projects.
• Orientation and team integration: You get to know the team and understand the principles of quality management and the internal processes applied to engineering.
• Meeting stakeholders: You meet key personnel across different departments to understand their roles and their contributions to the company’s objectives.
• Understanding processes: You delve into the internal processes relevant to engineering projects. This gives you insight into our project management methodologies and our quality assurance procedures.

Following the initial integration period, you transition into active project engagement. This phase involves:

• Project involvement: You become actively engaged in ongoing projects within the company, and you apply your knowledge and skills to contribute to project deliverables.
• Addition to technical competency matrix (TCM): Progress in technical skills development will be tracked and recorded in the TCM, reflecting the acquisition of your new competencies and capabilities.
• Working towards sign-off: You work towards achieving sign-off on specific competencies outlined in the TCM, demonstrating proficiency in various engineering subjects.

During this period, you have the opportunity to specialise in specific areas that interest you, and you can take part in advanced training:

• Advanced training: You participate in sessions tailored to your preferences (taking into account operational requirements). These sessions deepen your understanding of specialist topics and equip you with the skills to excel.
• Mentorship and guidance: You continue to receive mentorship and guidance from experienced professionals within the company. Mentors will provide support and advice to help you navigate your career path.

In the second year of the programme, you focus on applied learning and career development:

• Project management: If you opt for a project management placement, you gain practical experience in project planning, executions and monitoring. You work closely with a project manager to prepare project schedules, budgets, and resources. You liaise with stakeholders to ensure project success.
• Career development planning: Throughout the second year, you engage in career development planning sessions with your mentor. You reflect on your experiences, identify areas for growth and development, and set goals for your future career.
