We are offering you the chance to be part of something amazing. We use innovation, partnerships, and our 60 years of experience to offer our clients exceptional advice, research and development. Every day, our people use their passion, skills and intelligence to make the world a safer place. Why not join us?

Early career professionals at Roke get the opportunity to apply themselves across a broad range of projects. Roke's teams carefully choose the most effective tools for each development and as such we are always learning new tools, frameworks, approaches and sometimes languages. We build teams that can adapt to solve our customers' evolving challenges and rarely solve the same problem twice.

What can you expect?

You will typically be with us for eight weeks in July / August and will be paid an excellent monthly salary. We transform businesses and organisations across all sectors by bringing the physical and digital worlds together, applying our experience and expertise in sensors, communications, cyber-security and AI.

You should already have some practical experience of software and be able to demonstrate an analytical approach to problem solving, so that during your placement useful work can be conducted under the supervision of an engineer.
An ability to pick up new tools, frameworks and languages fast
An ability to analyse problems and communicate well thought through solutions
An ability to develop new solutions where no pre-existing solution fits
A willingness and capability to work as part of a teamWhere will you be based?

You will typically be located at one of Roke's sites in either Romsey or Gloucester.

Subsidised staff restaurant
Entitlement to paid leave
