Join us for a 12-month internship and you’ll get great exposure to the work we do, transforming the way we power, protect, and connect people across the globe, secure our world, and explore the universe.

At Rolls-Royce, you’re not expected to follow a set path. Everyone is unique, so every Rolls-Royce journey is different too. We'll help you to find your way and discover your potential. Your unique personality, passion, and sense of purpose makes us who we are and a place where everyone belongs. And anything is possible. Be you. Be Rolls-Royce.

What you'll do on the programme

We’re one of few companies on the planet with the scope of technology and the breadth of expertise to tackle the biggest challenges around. And on a 12-month internship with us, you'll get the chance to experience that first-hand.

You'll be aligned to one of our business areas, Civil Aerospace, Defence, Submarines, Group IT, Central Engineering, Central Manufacturing or Central Technology and complete rotational 'gigs', moving across teams and projects gathering experiences. You'll work in innovation and concept development, design, testing, manufacturing, or service support for sectors as wide-reaching as Electrical, Defence, IT and Digital & Data That could mean anything from exploring nuclear options for powering space travel, to helping develop exciting new demonstrator engines like our UltraFan. From using data, technology, and AI to improve a power station's impact on the environment. Or to keeping our company cyber safe.

Thanks to a combination of digital learning and on-the-job training, you’ll build a wealth of new skills with the help of industry experts. People who are as invested in your success as you are.

What you'll need to be successful

Any STEM degree, with subjects directly related to our work –– or a joint honours degree that combines a STEM subject with another like business or economics.

You’ll also need to be as passionate as we are about the world of technology. You’ll need to believe in the future of sustainable power, and its potential to change lives for the better. You’ll need to be open-minded, curious, collaborative, and agile in your approach to solving problems.

You must be flexible about where you work and be open to travelling between locations if required. We see hybrid working as a way to balance and flex our time between the office, home, or another remote working place. We’ve committed everyone to attend the workplace for collaboration and other specific reasons on average three days per week, but specific arrangements will be dependent on your role and placement. We encourage and support flexible working arrangements where we can. This includes which days, how many hours and at what times you need to work.

This is your chance to gain a fantastic insight into a leading, global business. But it’s up to you to make the most of it. If you do well, you could be offered a place on our graduate programme - and build on the experience you've already had.

At Rolls-Royce, we recruit interns based on merit, and regardless of age, disability, gender identity or expression, race/colour/nationality/ethnic or national origins, marriage or civil partnership, pregnancy or maternity, religion or belief, sex, sexual orientation, or any other characteristic protected by applicable legislation.
