About the programme

Mechanical Engineering is not one area, but many. Over the course of two to four years, you’ll get to experience the breadth of our work. You might be tackling submarine design projects or warship refits. Equally, you might be working on complex marine projects, fleet maintenance, rail engineering or nuclear programmes. The possibilities are incredibly varied. 

As part of this programme, we encourage mobility across our sectors to give you a broader experience and wider exposure to our business.

Mechanical Engineering at Babcock

You could work in anything from mechanical design right through to manufacture, installation and decommissioning. Equally, you could work on analysis and problem-solving for existing equipment or systems. 

What’s not in doubt is that there will be plenty of onsite work, such as implementing designs, finding solutions to installation issues, and liaising with designers and office-based engineers. 

You’ll also get involved in project management too, engaging with stakeholders, planning delivery and ensuring projects run to budget and programme.


What you'll need

• A BEng (Hons) degree. And because the programme may be accredited by the IMechE, IET, RINA (RP) and IMarEST, it is desirable that your degree is accredited by one of those institutions too.
• Many of our early careers roles are subject to Security Clearance and Trade Control restrictions which mean that your place of birth, nationality, citizenship, or residency you hold or have held may impact which roles you are eligible for. Further details are available at . For our early careers roles, you must be able to achieve BPSS and many of them require you to be eligible for Security Clearance.


What you'll get
We will provide you with a supportive and engaging environment where you can grow your career.

In addition:
• Minimum 25 days holiday entitlements + bank holidays + agile working* subject to conversation with your manager
• Generous pension and employee share schemes
• Flexible benefits, including cycle to work scheme, discounts
• Employee assistance programme supporting physical, mental and financial wellbeing
• You’ll also have the chance to get involved in our STEM outreach and volunteering activities, which our graduates find incredibly rewarding in all sorts of other ways.
