Graduate employer profile

Who we are

We’re a global leader in market changing communications technologies and our vision is a world where everyone can share information wherever, however and whenever they want – through voice, data, images or video. Having secured a market position of being one of the few companies worldwide that can truly offer end-to-end solutions for all major mobile communication standards; and with more than 40 percent of the world’s mobile traffic passing through our networks, you could say we’re on our way to achieving our goal.

If you’re keen to work for a company whose strategy is to make people’s lives easier and richer; provide affordable communication for all and find new ways for companies to do business, then you’re looking in the right place.

Expect the extraordinary

At Ericsson, you’ll be encouraged to think differently and be a proactive team player. And if you’re inspired by the values that lie at the heart of our culture – respect, professionalism and perseverence – then you’ll soon join forces with other bright creative people in coming up with the new ideas that keep us at the forefront of a fiercely competitive market.

You’ll be joining a company that invests in R&D and actively promotes standards and systems. We have one of the industry’s most competitive intellectual property portfolios, containing over 27,000 patents – and you can look forward to a role where you’ll soon be helping to add to this number.

Are you ready to take the technological lead?

We take the development of our future technological leaders very seriously. That's why we have developed the Ericsson Graduate Programme that provides the best form of training and detailed project involvement that will enable you to build your technical and industry knowledge whilst sharpening your soft skills and business awareness.

We're looking for high calibre graduates who are able to shape the future of our business; talented individuals who have already excelled in their chosen area.

In return we'll offer you a placement on our 18 month programme with rewards that include a competitive salary and sign-up bonus, a creative and fun working environment, as well as the chance to have an impact on the future of one of the most innovative companies around.
