Energise your career

Your journey is just as important as ours. Ready to step away from your studies for a year and get hands on with some real projects?

Our Year in Industry Schemes place you at the heart of a range of brands and business units, collaborating across teams, driving change and challenging the status quo.

We are a Flexible-First employer, which means we live and breathe a culture of trust and adaptability when it comes to where and when we work. Although we don’t have mandated office working, we need you to be willing to travel on-site regularly as we believe immersing yourself into our social and collaborative culture is vital in making the most of the opportunities we offer and will give you the best possible head start in your career.

But you won’t be doing it alone. With a network of buddies, mentors, and experienced line managers ready and waiting to support – we’re with you every step of the way.

We want to invest in your future so you can help re-write ours.

Procurement

Our Procurement Year in Industry Programme will complement your studies and accelerate your development – setting you up for your future career.

The team are responsible for purchasing all the goods and services our business needs to succeed. You could be involved in setting out strategy to ensure we keep a responsible, environmentally friendly supply chain, building tenders for new projects, negotiating contracts with new suppliers or managing our relationship with the likes of Amazon and Microsoft.

No procurement experience? No problem. We’ve got plenty to go around and can’t wait to share it with you. You will be provided with an unparalleled level of support with access to buddies, mentors, and experienced line managers, as well as having a ready-made network of graduates across the business to tap into.

Our main procurement hub is located in Windsor, but we have teams across Leicester and Hull near our national distribution centre and onshore oil terminal which you will have the opportunity to visit.

What we need from you:

  • Expecting a minimum 2:1 degree (2:2 if combined with a Masters)
  • Willing to relocate
  • Have the right to work in the UK at the start of employment
  • Available to start the programme on 17th June 2025 until Friday 31st July 2026

We’re a people place

We’re building a workplace where everyone feels they can belong – and we’re looking for people to add to this culture, not merge in it. We know that every voice matters, and every new perspective makes us more empathetic and reflective of the 10 million customers we serve.

You are welcome here for who you are, no matter how you see the world, how you express yourself or the journey you’ve been on to get here. It’s our differences that will give us the power to revolutionise the future of our planet.

With 13 different colleague networks, there’s space to find your community, beyond the graduate sphere.

Here’s what's in it for you

As an Energiser, you get a bumper reward package bursting with benefits including huge discounts on your energy bills and our British Gas & Hive products. Plus, you can choose from loads of extras to add in if you’d like to. Whether it’s a brand-new electric car, a gym membership, or extra days off. Our rewards are designed to give you the choice of benefits that support both you and your loved ones, making sure that you’re covered no matter what life throws your way.

Oh, and if that wasn’t enough, each year we give every colleague a chunk of free Centrica shares, as part of our group-wide profit share scheme. We’re all about making things fair. That’s why every single colleague receives exactly the same benefits, no matter who you are.

Are you ready?

If you're full of energy, fired up about sustainability, and ready to craft not only a better tomorrow, but a better you, then come and find your purpose in a team where your voice matters, your growth is non-negotiable, and your ambitions are our priority.

At Centrica we embrace diversity and seek to attract individuals with unique backgrounds and perspectives. To build a more sustainable future, we need the best team – a team with a diverse mix of people and skills, where everyone feels welcome and able to succeed. We are dedicated in helping to close the diversity gap and would love to see more females, people of colour and LGBTQ+ employees, as well as those from a variety of cultures and ethnicity to veterans and the differently abled. Supporting diversity and inclusion is a big part of who we are, we are not looking for people to blend into our culture but to add to it!
