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.

Our people are key in helping us achieve this, which is why we place a high priority on recruiting the very best people with the right skills, experience and attitude.

Our mortgage business is a cornerstone of our customer offerings, and as a Telephony Mortgage Consultant, you’ll be at the heart of our helpful banking strategy by fully understanding customer’s new or existing mortgage needs. Taking incoming calls or making calls, you’ll engage with customers to answer their mortgage queries, and identify appropriate cross sale opportunities with a focus on providing a first class customer experience. 

You’ll need to bring proven sales and customer service experience and a general knowledge of mortgages/process would be an advantage but is not essential. You’ll also be an excellent communicator and have the ability to work flexibly in this fast paced environment.

Cracking the confusingly complex is second nature to us at Thales*. Where others get fazed and faint hearted, we grab challenges with both hands and break new ground. If you’re exceptionally enthused about tackling the bafflingly bewildering, the impossibly intractable and the unrelentingly unknowable, we’d like you to create superlative solutions to business brainteasers.

You might not realise it but our work touches all of our lives – every single day. From BACS, the secure network communications system behind 3.7 billion secure electronic transactions every year, to in-flight entertainment systems for passenger planes and state-of-the-art equipment for military aircraft, the scope and scale of our problem-solving abilities knows no bounds.

Join our General Business stream and you’ll experience four six-month rotations in areas including
Programme Management, Commercial, Purchasing/ Procurement, Sales &amp; Marketing and Head Office functions. Alternatively, our specific Finance stream will introduce you to various businesses, again through four six-month rotations. 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.

From the retail environment, to the people in the team, to the products and the service, we make every customer visit an enjoyable occasion that they’ll remember. 

As a Store Leader, you’ll be responsible for this experience. It means setting the highest standards. Helping customers with your exceptional people skills. 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.
