“Our scheme offers graduates incredible opportunities to build
networks and skills, gain unique experience and explore their own
capabilities, motivations, ambitions and future direction. There’s
real scope to shape their own career; the more willing they are to
learn, try new things and push their own boundaries, the more their
role will expand to fit them. The successful candidates will have
shown their potential in academia: we’ll overlay it with world-class
industry experience to give them a huge advantage in a very
challenging, competitive employment climate."
Mark Adams, Director of Human Resources, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars
Rolls-Royce is pleased to announce that the
application window for its prestigious Graduate Programme is open from
today, Friday 11 October 2024. The application window will remain open
until Friday 15 November.
A key component of the Rolls-Royce Future Talent programme,
which also includes Internships and Apprenticeships, the Graduate
scheme is one of the most respected and prestigious of its kind in the
UK. Since it was established in 2007, more than 150 talented young
people have taken part, with many going on to secure successful
careers with Rolls-Royce, BMW Group and other major employers.
For the 2025 intake, Rolls-Royce has roles available in Sales
Operations, Product Management, Assembly Quality Management, Technical
Planning, Brand Strategy & Communications, Launch & Change
Management and Ownership Services.
During their two years with the company, successful candidates
will become integral members of their team, and can expect to put
their research, reporting and analytical skills to good use. They'll
also be working in a highly creative environment, in which they'll be
expected to speak up, challenge existing thinking and bring fresh
ideas and energy to their work.
The Rolls-Royce culture of excellence means that focus, drive,
determination and an ability to work to the highest standards are as
important as an applicant's academic credentials. Graduates who
challenge themselves, seize opportunities and are willing to try new
things will find their role expands to fit their ambitions, in an
environment where everyone supports and appreciates each other. That
sense of community helps individuals forge lasting and invaluable
connections across teams and departments within The Home of
Rolls-Royce at Goodwood, and beyond into Rolls-Royce operations
worldwide and other BMW Group brands.
Phil Turner, now working for Rolls-Royce as Bespoke Engineering
and Innovations Manager, completed his graduate programme in 2010. “I
loved art and design at school, but my teachers thought I had the
skills for engineering having studied Maths and Physics, so I decided
to take it on as a career path. Little did I know that one day I would
be able to combine my artistic interests with my technical expertise
here at Rolls-Royce Motor Cars,” he explained. “The best thing about
the graduate programme is that you have two years to really explore
your potential. You enter the business with a set of skills and
qualifications, and are encouraged to network and gain valuable
connections, insight and knowledge – all of which may help you explore
new avenues and discover potential you didn’t even know you had.”
Emily Firman joined the Graduate programme in 2023. Now in her
second year, she's just started a three-month placement in the Brand
Strategy team, as part of her role in Retail Development and
Enablement. “This really is the Rolls-Royce of graduate schemes. With
opportunities to work abroad and get involved in events such as the
Festival of Speed, a strong mentoring programme and access to benefits
like the company car scheme, there really is nothing to match it,” she
says. “It's very flexible, allowing you to choose which departments
you work with and helping you shape your own career. The company
provides you with all the support you need as you begin your career,
helping you to reach your full potential as a young professional. I
can’t wait to see where the programme takes me next!”
In addition to Graduate roles, Rolls-Royce is also offering
around 100 paid internships again in 2025. Students from universities
across the UK complete a 13-month industrial placement at Goodwood,
with roles available across all parts of the business next year.
Applications for Internships are also now open: for details of these
