Whether that's by working on multi-million-pound bids or collaborating with our business development teams to identify new opportunities within Babcock, our commercial teams are at the heart of creating a safe and secure world for all.

Our Group Commercial Graduate Programme is a two-year journey, focused on developing the next generation of commercial professionals. The programme typically comprises of four six-month placements across Aviation, Marine and Nuclear sectors across the UK.

You'll work in an environment that brings out your best. By gaining real-world experience alongside our commercial teams, you'll play a key role in shaping the future of our business. The placements you undertake will support your growth and we'll provide all the training, learning and support you need to accelerate your career. Additionally, we'll support you in gaining chartered status as a member of the World Commerce and Contracting (WorldCC) Association.

Commercial at Babcock:
Our Commercial function supports the entire business, and your placements could take you to any part of it, so you'll need to be mobile across the UK for this rotational programme. To support you in developing your knowledge and experience across the entire commercial lifecycle, you might be leading elements of bids, managing commercial contracts (including legal aspects), overseeing governance and compliance activities, or identifying new opportunities alongside our business development teams.

In addition to developing your technical skills, the programme will also help you to cultivate essential behavioural skills - allowing you to build collaborative relationships with our customers, partners and other key internal and external stakeholders.

What you'll need:
* A Bachelor's or Master's degree and demonstrable interest in a career in Commercial.

* Good interpersonal skills, the ability to drive change and results and a clear potential for inspiring others.
* Many of our early careers roles 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 roles you are eligible for. Further details are available at United Kingdom Security Vetting: clearance levels - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk). For our early careers roles, you must be able to achieve BPSS and many of them require you to be eligible for Security Clearance.

What you'll get:
We'll provide you with a supportive and engaging environment where you can grow your career.

In addition, 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
* Employee assistance programme supporting physical, mental and financial wellbeing

You'll also have the chance to get involved in our STEM outreach activities and volunteering opportunities.

Plus, when you join us, you'll be automatically enrolled onto our Graduate Development Programme. Through a series of digital and face to face sessions, presented by wellbeing and performance experts and our external partner Gen Healthy Minds, we will equip you with the knowledge and tools you need to thrive and perform at your very best on your programme and beyond.

Where you'll be based:
Our Commercial programme for Autumn 2025 is a Group programme. Joining a Group Graduate Programme provides you with a unique opportunity to experience various sectors, understand what differentiates their businesses and where the commonalities are. Specifically, you may find yourself in placements at the heart of our Marine, Land, Aviation and Nuclear sector aligned teams. This is a great foundation for an accelerated career as it will offer you broad experience and wide business exposure.

This group programme provides placement opportunities at various UK locations, including Bristol, Plymouth, Warrington, London, Andover, and Walsall in England, as well as multiple sites across Scotland, including HM Naval Base Clyde.

We ask all our graduates to be flexible and willing to move during the programme - you'll need to be flexible about your location for these cross-sector roles as our different business areas have sites across the UK, placing our specialism closer to the customer. However, we will work with you to understand your preferences and will combine business need with individual preferences where we can.

Closing dates:
Please be aware that if there is a high level of interest in this programme, applications may close earlier than advertised. To give yourself the best chance of being considered for a place on this programme, please submit your application as early as possible.

Making your application:
We offer a diverse range of early careers programmes. Please explore your options and select the programme that best aligns with your passions and interests. Choose carefully, as only one application can be reviewed per cycle. If you submit multiple applications, only the first one received will be considered. If the programme you apply for is oversubscribed, we'll transfer your application to another programme you are eligible for and interested in.
