**Join us. Unleash your energy within.**

If you have world-class ambitions to reach the stars while keeping your feet on the ground, we’re the team for you. We've created a new breed of company - future-focused with reimagined ambition across all disciplines within the energy sector.

We love people who know their own potential and are not afraid to use it. We know that together, we’re far more than the sum of our parts. So, we celebrate people who want to grow and develop as we work together on some of the largest projects on the energy world stage.

**Our purpose and beliefs**:
As Kent, we’re tackling the greatest challenge of our time - to bring our world the energy it needs in the most responsible way ever imagined.

It’s the energy of every member of our team driven by our beliefs that is making this happen. Whatever our skill, our language, or our culture. These beliefs define and direct us every day to be the very best - for ourselves, our clients, our key stakeholders, the communities we operate in and the planet:
We PLAY BIG

We thrive on EMOTIONAL AGILITY

We are FANATICAL ABOUT PERFORMANCE

We are built on INFINITE THINKING

**Our vision for Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging**:
We recognise that diversity & inclusion are catalysts for success. We’re heightening awareness on the benefits of people diversity, diversity of experiences and diversity of our perspectives. Creating a culture of inclusivity where all employees feel a sense of belonging.

Our combined energy is fueled by different nationalities, across 6 continents and 24 countries. Our commitment is to celebrate character - no matter what ethnic background, gender, age, religion, identity, or disability.

**About the job**:
***

**Key Deliverables**:
The student will be involved in a portfolio of projects and internal development initiatives in offshore renewables.

Tasks are likely to include:

- Assisting in the development of updates to Kent’s in-house virtual wind farm tool through reviewing methodologies for geotechnical design of various foundation types (pin piles, monopiles, suction buckets, gravity bases) for concept level, their implementation in the tool and the associated validation.
- Support the geotechnical team in project work; activities may include processing of soil investigation data for characterisation, design of fixed foundations for offshore wind, design of anchors for floating offshore wind, installation assessment for piled foundations or suction bucket foundations.

This is an exciting opportunity to gain practical geotechnical engineering experience in the offshore renewables sector.

The student will produce a report at the end of the contract, summarising the work undertaken.

We are committed to our diverse and inclusive community - a place where we can all be ourselves, thrive and develop. From day one, we offer a range of family friendly, inclusive employment policies, flexible working arrangements, and employee networks to support staff from different backgrounds.
