You'll be involved in a wide range of work that will help you build expertise across the many aspects of naval architecture.

Whether supporting frontline capability or pioneering new technologies, you'll be trusted to make a meaningful impact from the very beginning. How is the programme structured? The Naval Architecture Graduate Programme runs for two years and is designed to give you breadth and depth of experience across the discipline. You'll move through a series of placements, each lasting a few months, giving you the chance to work in different teams and explore areas such as hydrodynamics, structures, design, stability and safety. These placements may take you to different areas of the business, from supporting submarine sustainment to working on surface ships or marine infrastructure projects. The variety ensures you see the full scope of naval architecture in practice and understand how each discipline contributes to successful project delivery. How do we develop and support you? From day one, you'll receive structured support, personalised training, and dedicated mentorship to help you excel throughout your programme and beyond. You'll join our Graduate Development Programme, featuring expert-led masterclasses on communication, personal branding, resilience, and wellbeing. To support your journey toward Chartered or Incorporated Engineer status, we offer guidance and cover all associated fees. What rewards and benefits will you get? We want you to feel supported, valued and excited about what's ahead. That's why we offer a comprehensive package designed to support your development, your wellbeing and your life outside of work too. In addition to a minimum starting salary of £35,000, you'll benefit from: A minimum of 25 days of holiday plus bank holidays, with agile working options subject to discussion with your manager Generous pension and employee share schemes Flexible benefits, including cycle to work scheme, discounts Wellbeing support, covering mental, physical, financial, and social wellbeing, with services like our Employee Assistance Programme, digital GP service, and health checks. You'll also have the chance to get involved in our STEM outreach activities and volunteering opportunities. What do you need to apply? We accept degrees in Naval Architecture, Ship Science, Maritime/Marine Engineering, Marine Technology, and Ship Building. A degree accredited by RINA/IMarEST is preferred. Many of our graduate programmes are subject to Security Clearance and Trade Control restrictions which mean that your place of birth, nationality, citizenship, or residency you hold or have held may impact which programmes you are eligible for. For this programme, you must be able to achieve Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS) and Security Check (SC) clearance. Further details are available at United Kingdom Security Vetting: clearance levels - GOV.UK. Where will you be based?

Our business in Plymouth works in partnership with the Ministry of Defence (MOD) and Royal Navy at HM Naval Base Devonport. We provide through-life support for submarines, surface ships and associated systems and equipment as part of our continuing commitment to support our nation's naval capability. While you'll join a specific business area and location, placements at different sites across the UK are possible. Agile working is supported, but you'll be expected to work on-site multiple times a week. We encourage flexibility and openness to relocation throughout the programme and will consider your personal circumstances when arranging placements. Ready to apply?
