Could you be the next scientist or engineer at EDF?

The energy sector is changing rapidly with technical and social innovation driving the UK’s transition to net zero. EDF are the UK’s largest producer of clean energy, operating 5 nuclear energy plants, 32 wind farms (onshore and offshore) and 2 battery sites.

Nuclear power is the most reliable, low-carbon energy source currently available to the UK. EDF is playing a key role in the development of nuclear sites, while the new power station, Hinkley Point C, will provide low-carbon electricity to meet 7% of the UK demand. The project is already making a positive impact on the local and national economy as well as boosting skills and education.

The Science and Engineering Graduate Programme puts you at the heart of these operations. Focusing on all aspects of nuclear energy build, production and decommissioning, science and engineering graduates get opportunities across different teams in locations across the UK.

• Applying logic
• Problem solving
• Analytical ability

• How scientists and engineers work to deliver low carbon electricity to UK homes and businesses
• The many different roles and career paths that your science or engineering degree can lead to in the energy sector
• The different aspects of operating a power plant that scientists and engineers get involved with, including:
  • How engineers work through complex tasks in energy production
  • The way psychology is applied to real life situations to address how teams respond to different scenarios
  • The role of project management in delivering large energy production projects.
