Placement and Internship Opportunities.
Where can you gain an unparalleled introduction to one of our country’s key industries? Right here at EDF Energy. Before you graduate, join us on a year long Industrial Placement or a 6-week Summer Internship to discover what a career with us is all about, and whether or not it’s the right choice for you.
About the Placements and Summer Internships.
We offer 12-month Industrial Placements in a variety of different areas across the business. Each gives you the chance to focus on roles and projects that are directly related to your field of study, while developing a broad understanding of our organisation and the industry as a whole. Whichever starting point you choose, whether it’s Nuclear Science and Engineering, Environmental, Human Factors, IT, Marketing or Technical Training, prepare for an exciting journey, with a scale and scope of opportunity few organisations can match.
If, on the other hand, you’re currently in your first or second year of study, our Summer Internships are a great way to gain some valuable industry experience and insight over the holidays. Opt for Nuclear Science & Engineering, Business Project Analyst, Human Factors, Internal audit, HR, IT, Marketing or Finance, and decide whether EDF Energy, and indeed the sectors we operate in, may be a career option you want to explore further.
About you.
We have high expectations for the students we take on. The specific qualifications we look for vary from placement to placement and internship to internship, but you will need to be working towards a relevant 2.1 degree. That said, you needn’t be an expert in your chosen sector already, but you’ll have a good base understanding from your studies. We’re eager for you to achieve a great deal – and we want to see that eagerness reflected. So you’ll need to show demonstrable interest in the work we do, and want to take ownership of your experience with us – really getting your teeth into it from day one.
About EDF Energy
A wholly-owned subsidiary of the EDF Group, itself one of Europe's largest energy groups, EDF Energy is one of the UK’s largest energy companies and its largest producer of low-carbon electricity. What really sets us apart, however, is our fresh approach to the industry. Everything we do is underpinned by a clear customer focus and a drive towards a sustainable future. Because it’s these two factors, we believe, that will define the future of the entire UK energy industry.
