IT and Business Services Graduate Scheme

Entry Requirement

At least a 2:2 in any degree subject

Across 2-years, our IT and telecoms Graduate Scheme will give you the chance to experience disciplines, activities and roles that run our IT and telecoms department. We have new innovations being rolled out as part of our digital transformation, and you’ll be getting involved from day one, gaining the skills and insights needed to grow as a professional.

If driving innovation matters to you. You matter to us. Our future matters.

What you’ll be doing

As our organisation increases its digital reach, we rely on our IT & Telecoms department to support everything we do.

Whether you’re working with cutting-edge technologies and applications, such as digital railway traffic management and accident prevention, or contributing to the delivery of significant business change initiatives, you’ll always be facing new and exciting challenges. You’ll experience a variety of roles across the department, such as project management, service management, data analytics information systems strategy, and application support.

Who you are matters

You’ll also need to have at least a 2:2 in any degree subject.

We look for individuals with a passion for IT, an eye for detail and the ability to get into the nitty gritty with data. You should be comfortable working with an innovative team and creating solutions to complex problems. Other qualities we’re looking for are:

• Confidence
• Strong communication skills
• Good presentation skills

What you’ll get out of it

We’re passionate about developing the next generation of talent in our industry, and that means we’ll ensure you’re surrounded by supportive colleagues and receive coaching from senior staff. You’ll have the chance to explore our business on away days throughout the scheme with visits to local depots, signalling centres, and stations.

You’ll have the chance to earn a qualification in APM Project Management qualification or Prince2 IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL). Previous graduates have gone on to achieve internal promotion to senior roles and undertake further professional qualifications supported by the business.

We matter to millions. You could too.
