Role Overview

In the Engineering department the successful students will join a team working on real business projects, carrying out a variety of engineering tasks.

There is an opportunity to develop your civil engineering skills whilst gaining real world experience working alongside technical specialists and operational engineers solving problems that could impact customers and the environment.

You will gain an understanding on a wide range of projects from reducing storm spills to a developer services project where we need to divert or protect our assets, for example to accommodate a flood defence scheme, you may also experience a large project such as a major pipeline project.

You will benefit from the shared knowledge within the Civil Engineering Team and expertise of working with colleagues across the wider Engineering disciplines whilst also developing your own specialist skills and providing a valuable contribution to the team.

We will help you gain an understanding of the projects being undertaken by United Utilities and the methods used to deliver them. Specific tasks may be assigned during this time. You will be accountable for delivering these with the support of experienced engineers and your line manager.

During your 3 month Internship you may also be given the opportunity to visit some our sites. You'll see how we carefully produce clean safe drinking water and how we treat wastewater in order to release it safely back in to the environment.

You will also get the opportunity to mix with our current graduates who can share experiences, tips, and guidance with you for the next steps in your career.
