BMT is dedicated to solving some of the most important engineering challenges of our time. Our people use their technical excellence to deliver practical, meaningful solutions that make a real difference.
We are committed to building a safer, more efficient, and more sustainable future. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are central to our mission, shaping our culture and supporting our purpose.
Join BMT’s multidisciplinary Data & AI team within BMT’s Applied Technology capability to join us in the application of data science and artificial intelligence to real customer problems.
Our work combines consultancy, research and practical delivery in Defence, government and other regulated or high-consequence environments. Depending on the project, you might explore and prepare data, develop and evaluate analytical or AI models, build a prototype tool, or help turn a promising approach into a solution that can be implemented and supported.
You will work alongside experienced Data Scientists, AI Researchers, Data Architects, Data Engineers and Data Governance specialists. This breadth will help you build strong foundations, understand how different Data & AI disciplines fit together and gradually shape the direction of your career.
This is a graduate development role. We do not expect you to arrive with experience in every area. We are looking for strong foundations, curiosity and the potential to grow. Through BMT’s two-year graduate programme, project experience, mentoring and tailored technical development, you will build capability in applied Data Science, AI and professional consultancy.
With support appropriate to your experience, you will:
Due to the nature of the work undertaken, successful applicants will be required to obtain and maintain the appropriate level of UK Security Clearance. Eligibility requirements are determined by the relevant UK Government security standards and may be subject to nationality, residency, and background criteria. Applicants should ensure they meet the clearance requirements before applying.
At BMT, our values shape everything we do. We're looking for curious, analytical graduates who enjoy using data and technology to solve complex real-world problems. You may be early in your career, but you'll bring a logical approach to problem-solving, a willingness to learn, and the confidence to ask questions and seek evidence when tackling new challenges. You'll enjoy collaborating with colleagues from different disciplines and be able to communicate your ideas clearly, whether to technical or non-technical audiences.
You will have a degree, equivalent qualification or demonstrable experience in a discipline involving programming, data, quantitative analysis or scientific problem-solving, such as Data Science, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Mathematics, Statistics, Engineering, Physics or Economics. You'll have practical experience using Python for data or analytical projects and a foundation in data preparation, statistics, machine learning and AI principles. Just as importantly, you'll bring curiosity, integrity, adaptability and a genuine enthusiasm for continuous learning.
Whilst experience in Defence or consultancy is not required, you should be interested in working within regulated, high-consequence environments where quality, integrity and the responsible use of data and AI are essential. Experience with technologies such as SQL, Power Query, Git, cloud services, APIs, data pipelines, machine learning or generative AI would be advantageous but is not essential.
A varied early career where no two projects need to look the same. You will have the opportunity to broaden your technical experience, learn from experienced practitioners and increasingly take ownership as your confidence and capability grow.
