International engineering company Alstom has started the search for the next intake of graduates and apprentices to work in its energy and transport divisions.
The company, which has 30 sites and a 6,000-strong workforce in the UK, is looking for 20 apprentices and 11 graduates for its power business, two graduates for its renewables arm, six apprentices and five graduates for its grid division, and 10 apprentices and 10 graduates for its transport activities. The transport roles will be based in London, the Midlands and the North West.
Terence Watson, Alstom’s UK president, said: “It seems to be a widely held belief that the UK doesn’t ‘do’ engineering any more, but that just isn’t the case.
Here at Alstom, we’re involved in some of the biggest engineering projects in Europe — such as Crossrail (pictured) — as well as in projects taking electricity across thousands of miles in India, and in making sure that millions of commuters get home every day and that the country’s lights stay on. I really would urge anyone who wants to work for an engineering company to take a look at what we’ve got to offer.”
