Job content

Overview - dept: We don’t build cars, we enable cars to be built! Combining technical know-how with hands-on expertise, our engineers define the processes and facilities needed to achieve production objectives. From procuring and installing innovative solutions to achieve maximum output, to root cause analysis and resolving quality issues, we support all areas of the manufacturing operation, ensuring seamless production of over 320,000 cars every year. Engineering is a key function offering a full spectrum of roles covering Mechanical, Electrical, Manufacturing, Automotive, Chemical, and Civil Engineering.

We combine practical engineering with project coordination using cross-functional teamwork. Truly embedded into the production process, engineers enjoy a mixture of desk based work such as CAD & specification writing alongside real-world activities such as line trials and equipment buy off. We continually question methods, seek areas to improve and identify creative alternatives.

Overview - role: If you are an ambitious student who does not have the option of a year in industry as part of your degree, our 10-week Summer Placement Scheme is designed for you. It’s up to a maximum of ten weeks - at our busiest time. That means more opportunities than ever to get involved in some of our biggest, most exciting projects. That’s not to say it’ll be overwhelming.

You will be involved in a full range of activities from minor repairs and improvements to major projects and new product launches. Whatever your area, you’ll be combining hands-on engineering with project co-ordination, teamwork, support, leadership and extensive communication amongst other departments. Support is always on hand when you need it, but with the guidance of skilled and experienced engineers, and your own natural ability, you’ll soon find yourself meeting challenges head on and dealing with all situations that arise.

From day one, we’ll assign you a mentor to provide, support, guidance and advice during your time with us. The Summer Engineering Placement even offers the chance to make contacts that could prove invaluable in your final year, and after graduation. As with our Placement Scheme, you’ll be able to identify projects in the department that you could use for your final year dissertation too. So, make your summer truly count on an Engineering Placement Scheme that will help you to stand out from the crowd.
