Leicester, United Kingdom Industry Placements Full time

Graduate Electrical and Electronic Engineering Scheme 2025
Our 2-year Electrical and Electronic Engineering graduate scheme will give you the tools and experience to kickstart your engineering career at Network Rail.
The scheme is focused on developing your knowledge, experience, and ability in all aspects of your chosen engineering discipline while improving your awareness of the impact your decisions will have on our passenger and freight users.
You will have a genuine impact on the UK’s drive towards NetZero through the sustainable management of the railway infrastructure as the railway network adapts to the changing climate.
This time is precious as it will be the foundation on which the rest of your scheme is built, after which you will begin your longer formal placements within your chosen discipline.
During these placements, you will contribute to the delivery of major investments and learn how to manage and maintain the railway asset efficiently and effectively.
As an Electrical and Electronic Engineering Graduate, you will choose from a range of asset disciplines including Electrification, Plant, Signalling, and Telecoms, experiencing everything from how the railway infrastructure is assessed, maintained, designed, and renewed.
You’ll need to have at least a 2:2 in an Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) accredited degree and the flexibility to occasionally travel to attend training opportunities at various locations.
We look for diverse and logical thinkers who can find creative solutions to challenging problems. It is essential that you have great communication skills, are able to engage with people at all levels, and are good at building relationships with your peers and colleagues.
In your first few weeks, we will help you to register with and cover the costs for the Institution of Engineering and Technology. Each placement and training opportunity will be structured towards you becoming either a qualified Chartered Engineer (CEng) or Incorporated Engineer (IEng). This, along with your continual professional development (CPD) record, will set you on a trajectory to become IEng or CEng within a target of 3-4 years and 5-6 years respectively.
Your learning and development will be further supported with four modules of technical training. The first of these is designed to give you an overview of the engineering disciplines and safety qualifications that you will require at Network Rail. There will also be several leadership modules to help develop your soft skills and support you to become one of our future leaders.
After your two-year graduate scheme, you will continue to be supported by your Mentor as you transition into your first appointment, where you will continue with the next step on your professional development journey.
