Both streams could take you to any of our UK sites, so as well as developing an overview of the business as a whole, it’s also an opportunity to network, meet new people and experience a broad spectrum of business challenges.

You can come from any degree discipline, as long as you have the ambition, intellect and commercial savvy to stand out from the crowd.


&lt;strong&gt;*&lt;/strong&gt;That’s Thales as in ‘Alice’ by the way.

At Atos, we’re bringing together people, technology and business to meet the challenges of the future. Whether it’s to provide early warning of a tsunami or to guarantee that the 2012 Olympic Games competition results are delivered to the world in less than a second, we’ve got the technology in place to get the job done. And we know that world-class technology needs world-class talent behind it – and that’s where you come in.  

Join our Managed Services Graduate Programme and you’ll be exposed to a wide range of projects and technologies from our entire range of clients and markets. You’ll undertake a wide variety of roles over the first one to two years, focusing on infrastructure, networks, or application technology management.

Most importantly, you’ll get a solid grounding in a technical area that you can later choose to become a specialist in.

No matter what path you choose with us, you’ll need to be flexible regarding location. Projects may be based in different locations and a willingness to travel is essential. We’ll need to see a solid technical background and all relevant qualifications in your chosen discipline, plus an awareness of the latest developments in IT. You’ll be equally comfortable working alone or as part of a team, and the ability to communicate effectively at all levels will be second nature.

They are natural, engaging people; strong team players; talented, energetic people managers who can coach others, lead by example and deliver consistently memorable customer experiences. 

For a varied role like this, you need solid retail leadership experience. It’s all about inspiring and organising others. Building an outstanding team. Learning and improving by supporting the Store Leader. So you’ll also need a real passion for development and growing your own skills. Your talent and enthusiasm are vital, as you’ll have total involvement in how the store is run. 

This is the kind of autonomy we think is hard to find elsewhere. There are also some rewards and benefits that are hard to match too – just what you’d expect from a business that thinks as much about its people as its customers. 

We’re introducing innovative new products and attracting new customers all the time; so every branch offers a unique challenge. If you can keep pace with evolving technology and our fast-moving business, we can offer you some exciting career prospects. With our tailored development plans, you’ll be ready to grasp every opportunity that comes your way.

We’ll also expect you to have at least a Grade C at GCSE or equivalent for Maths and English.

You must also be willing to study for a mandatory professional qualification as part of the programme.

Acting as a role model for the rest of the team. In short, it means doing more than taking an operational overview. Everything you do will be geared towards maximising the potential of your team, maximising sales and increasing customer loyalty. From coaching staff, to applying commercial acumen. So you’ve got to be energetic, open and dedicated to continuous improvement. 

Management experience is essential. Show us you have a proven track record in inspiring teams to achieve targets, and we’ll give you the freedom to run your store, your way. You’ll make sure that your team is up-to-speed on all the latest products, as it’s important they’re comfortable selling everything from broadband to fixed line phones. After all, our customers rely on our technology to stay connected. Above all, you’ll recognise that we are growing and evolving – with more possibilities for talented people than ever before. If you’re organised and keen to help people connect, you’ll soon find that you’re valued, developed and rewarded.

We are a top 30 FTSE 100 company and a leading integrated energy business, with a growing upstream oil, gas and power generation portfolio. Our programme will engage you in a variety of roles including hands-on operations, technical engineering and project work to keep our assets running – even Greenfield project development and plant commissioning.

During your four years on the Programme you will be sponsored by a key section of the business: Centrica Energy, Power Generation or Centrica Storage. Senior stakeholders will support and guide you on your path towards chartered status, and will also plan ahead regarding your first permanent role within that business unit on completing the Programme. To help you develop breadth there may be the opportunity to undertake a placement in other parts of the business, which could give you experience in areas as diverse as gas production, gas storage, renewable energy and energy trading. A carefully-structured development programme will give you the opportunity to achieve your full potential.

You’ll be part of a multi-disciplinary team responsible for delivery to millions of customers at a time. So you will need to be a passionate and creative electrical (C&amp;I) engineer who can deliver solutions, often within tight timeframes, and implement them safely and successfully.
Most of all, you should be keen to learn new skills and constantly build on your knowledge.

As well as the ideal grounding for a career in the energy business, you can look forward to a package that includes flexible benefits, contributory pension scheme (after three months), life insurance, and discounts on British Gas products and a wide range of other items.

So, if you have a Masters’ degree in a relevant engineering discipline, a full UK driver’s licence (due to remote locations) and can combine real ambition with genuine commercial savvy, join a uniquely pioneering and diverse engineering team at Centrica.
