Deliver support on complex programmes

We provide through-life technical and engineering support for our customers’ assets, delivering improvements in performance, availability and programme cost. We deliver these critical services to defence and civil customers, including engineering support to naval, land, air and nuclear operations, frontline support, specialist training and asset management.

Product design, manufacture and integration

We design and manufacture a range of defence and specialist equipment, from naval ships and weapons handling systems to liquid gas handling systems. We also provide integrated, technology-enabled solutions to our defence customers in areas such as secure communications, electronic warfare and air defence.

Whether you’re into engineering, science, business, or project management, at Babcock you’ll be part of something bigger. From design through to decommissioning, your work as a Graduate will see you support products and services that are essential to national security and public infrastructure.

Together, we’ll build a future that lasts - not just through the impact you'll make, but by helping you connect the dots between meaningful work and a long-term career that respects your work-life balance.

Our principles put people at the core of everything we do; they guide how we all work together and create the foundation for how we behave as individuals and as a team. 

They keep us on the right course for achieving our vision of a safe, strong, sustainable Babcock, unifying the way we work. So, no matter your role in the business or location around the world, from the front-line to the Board, we’re all on the same page and working together in the same way.

At Babcock, we believe diverse perspectives, backgrounds and experiences help us create a stronger, more innovative business. By fostering an inclusive culture where everyone feels respected and empowered, we enable our people to do their best work and make a meaningful impact.

Our ambitions are bold as we drive to have a minimum 30% women in the business by 2030. To accelerate progress we have looked at our strategic approach to inclusion and diversity and are taking a number of actions including: rolling out new policies and ways of working, refreshed recruitment processes, improved leadership development, enhanced mentoring programmes and career returners schemes along with training.

Our Gender Balance Action Plan provides a clear roadmap for driving progress, backed by data, insight and senior leadership support. These efforts are delivering results: since reporting began in 2017, we have made sustained progress in reducing our gender pay gap, with our median pay gap falling from 16.5% to 6.2%, significantly below the UK national average of 12.8%.

While we are proud of the progress made, we remain focused on improving representation, creating opportunities for career growth and building an equitable workplace where everyone can succeed.

We’re a company committed to inclusion and diversity, which is why we sponsor so many valuable employee networks in our UK business.
