What to expect in an Industrial placement
Our goal is to inspire you, the next generation, to be yourselves and make your mark on our business.
Our students play a big part in the innovative and lasting solutions that we deliver to our clients. A year’s industrial placement – sometimes called a sandwich placement – gives you practical, hands-on experience surrounded by our friendly and encouraging team.
You’ll work alongside business leaders from day one, and participate in live projects, allowing you to put the theory to the test! An industrial placement with us gives you the opportunity to make a real difference (and we hope leads to a graduate offer to return the following year!).
Technical industrial placements
We want to reward your talent with the opportunity to succeed, and this stems from your passion and genuine interest for technology. This is what we look for in all our industrial placement students, therefore our application process is open to people from all degree backgrounds.
In the majority of cases, however, our technical industrial placement students will be studying towards a computer science or STEM-related degree.
