UK Early Careers
Our Early Careers programmes are the future of our organisation and we are committed to ensuring that your experience here is the best it can be.

About Our Programmes
As a Graduate or Intern, you can choose to specialise in a range of disciplines including software engineering, project management, systems engineering and control software engineering.
You will complete a one-week induction, followed by a structured training programme to equip you with the skills and knowledge to start working on our customer projects.
Graduate Programme
Our two-year graduate programme will allow participants to experience different projects and develop their skills and interests. Time is allocated for developing technical skills, to innovate, build leadership capability, and develop key soft-skills.
We are committed to providing you with a comprehensive support system that includes a dedicated mentor, buddy, project lead, line manager, and our Early Careers team. At the start of the programme, participants will have an induction followed by structured training to prepare them for customer projects.

Northrop Grumman UK
"When I joined Northrop Grumman in the UK, I found an extremely friendly, inclusive and collaborative organisation with people who are willing to answer my questions and committed to delivering for our customers, working hard to drive our business forwards. We make the UK safer through our Defence and Cyber and Intelligence businesses. We offer our early careers joiners the opportunity to explore the latest technologies and solve some of the most complex challenges in the world.
It’s not all about the work we do, but how we maintain our culture. I love what we stand for and our values define how we work and deliver for our customers. Check out our Employee Resource Groups and our STEM outreach activities and get involved wherever you can. You may be surprised as to where these opportunities can lead you and the people that you will meet along the way."
