Graduate Engineers - Management Development Programme

About us:

Precision Castparts Corporation (PCC) is owned by Berkshire Hathaway Corporation.  Within PCC alone, we employ over 20,000 people at 164 locations in 15 countries (13 sites in the UK). We insist on quality, not just in materials and processes but also in the people we employ.

The MDP is our flagship graduate programme and our philosophy is very different to many others - we believe you will develop best by working on challenging, real projects and you will have immediate interface and exposure to senior leaders at our manufacturing sites. You will have access to an outstanding support network, be assigned a mentor and despite our size, MDPs are recognised, respected and rewarded - with us, you will never just be a number or get lost in the crowd.
