Our technology powers EVERYTHING with a digital component: we produce innovative equipment that enables the world’s biggest names in electronics to bring their technology to market.

Our People enjoy challenge and opportunity in equal measure. We sharpen our skills and knowledge, and experiment at the cutting edge across multiple disciplines.

We think you will like it too.

The Role

Our placements provide an opportunity to really learn how a business works. During your placement you will be hands on from day one, you will be actively involved in business projects, and your experience and knowledge will be utilised and strengthened during the 13 months with us. You’ll be based in our Weymouth office, working alongside experienced professionals and contributing to real business outcomes.

We are looking for someone who is adaptable, curious and eager to learn; someone who can embrace new technologies, including AI, build strong working relationships, and use critical thinking and creativity to solve problems and make a positive impact.

We have an opportunity for you to join this incredible business and have an active role in our Projects & Processes team. This team plays a key role in driving continuous improvement, operational excellence and improving how we work across departments.

This role covers a wide range of responsibilities, including:

  • Contributing to process improvement initiatives across the business.
  • Supporting project planning, scheduling and reporting of activities.
  • Managing clear and focused communication to business stakeholders.
  • Helping with the management of risks, issues and opportunities associated with project delivery.
  • Learning how to apply structured project management tools and techniques in a real-world setting.

You’ll be encouraged to take initiative, collaborate effectively and grow professionally.

Can I use AI to apply?

Technology supports and enhances our work, but it does not define it. That should be the same for your application: use technology to support and enhance your story if you want to, although we encourage you to not let AI tell it for you!

Be human. Be the real you. We have computers to do computer things.
