Whether we’re leading the journey to net zero carbon emissions, building state-of-the-art facilities, or providing nuclear-powered solutions, we rely on our skilled Project Managers to help us achieve our ambitions.
By combining formal learning with practical, real-world experience, our Project Management Degree Apprenticeship will give you the skills to do the same.
Rolls-Royce designs, builds and services the world’s most vital technologies, providing critical power to customers where safety and reliability are paramount.
For over 60 years we’ve provided the power for the UK Royal Navy’s nuclear submarine fleet. Join us and we’ll provide an environment where you can be yourself. An inclusive culture that invests in you and gives you access to opportunities where you can grow your career and make a difference.
You’ll spend four years with our expert teams working on real projects that support submarines in the Royal Navy. You’ll get to know our business while developing practical knowledge of project management techniques, tools and methodologies. Completing a series of placements, you’ll experience different parts of our Submarines business. Each placement will generally last six months to give you a real understanding of the area you’re experiencing as well as the project you’re working on.
Through it all, you’ll develop invaluable experience of world-class tools and processes, while learning from supportive professionals. Alongside this, you’ll as you work towards a BA (Hons) in a Project Management discipline with the University of Cumbria. This is mostly completed remotely through distance learning combined with on-site sessions around three times a year. Plus, a professional qualification recognised by the Association of Project Management (APM).
Your placements will take you to a variety of areas within our business. The ability to plan with integrated teams, manage risk and use data analysis to control and manage your project will become second nature – you’ll be able to plan for every eventuality. Your work might include introducing new products or services, developing new facilities, or looking at the infrastructure for IT projects.
Every bit as important as your academic achievements, however, are the personal qualities you bring to the role. We’re looking for fast learners who are motivated to develop a career in project management.
Beyond that, you’ll have great communication and team working skills as well as leadership potential. Attention to detail and organisational skills are also important.
Our behaviours drive us - we put safety first, do the right thing, keep it simple and make a difference. We’ll expect that of you, too.
To work for the Rolls-Royce Submarines business an individual has to hold a Security Check clearance. Rolls-Royce will support the application for Security Clearance if you do not currently already have this in place. Due to the nature of work the business conducts and the protection of certain assets we can only progress applications from individuals who are a UK national or, in MoD approved cases, a dual national.
