Graduates

We offer a range of graduate opportunities across the business, including:

• Permanent graduate appointments
• Gap year placements
• Summer placements

Some of the areas that our graduates work in include:

• Electrical design
• Major projects
• Sustainable development
• Grid connections
• Energy and environmental services
• Finance, IT and marketing

Thanks to the diverse range of projects, roles and clients that encompasses life at UPL, no two graduate experiences will be exactly the same. We do however ensure that every graduate will be given the opportunity to stretch the boundaries of their knowledge and work to their full potential during their time with us.

All of our new recruits are encouraged to challenge themselves within the working environment to become true thinking performers. Support is always there if you need it and you will be surrounded by a strong network of experienced colleagues every step of the way.

We will endeavour to provide additional training appropriate to your chosen field – this might be on the job training, mentoring from our senior engineers, focused training courses or further professional development.

As a new recruit you will be assigned an experienced line manager who will help to tailor your day-to-day work and review your development on a regular basis, with support and mentoring to ensure you achieve your goals. We strive to ensure that all of our graduates are given sufficient opportunities for self-development, and actively encourage staff to take on new roles and responsibilities within our growing business.

Due to the diverse nature of our business we have different offerings that are role specific. Across the board however we offer a competitive benefits package that includes a company pension scheme, life assurance, childcare vouchers scheme and 28 – 33 days annual leave per year.
