EDF UK · Leiston, England, United Kingdom
Job Description
At EDF, success is personal. We don’t define it – you do. Join our Outage Industrial Placement and you’ll shape your future, your way – while helping Britain achieve net zero. This is your chance to learn from experts, grow your skills and make a real impact.
"Electricity is such a vital component in everyone’s lives. It powers schools, businesses and hospitals, so I knew that if I did my placement within EDF then I would have a really large impact on society, and that made my placement a lot more fulfilling.” Priyanka, Science and Engineering Industrial Placement.
The Opportunity
This 12-month placement offers a starting salary of £26,050 and the chance to work at one of our key nuclear sites. You’ll be part of a team that’s driving innovation and safety in the energy sector.
You’ll gain hands-on experience in outage projects that support nuclear safety and operations. With opportunities to get involved with various different groups, this placement offers a springboard into a rewarding career in energy.
What You’ll Experience
During your Industrial Placement, you’ll work within the Outage Management Department at our Sizewell B Power Station. You will be supporting Project Leads with outage preparation and planning activities.
This placement offers practical learning in a professional environment, supported by experienced teams and mentors. You’ll apply academic knowledge to real industry contexts, with the opportunity to put your overalls on and go and have a look at the plant yourself, while completing degree-relevant modules and gaining insight into engineering and outage management within the energy sector.
Your Work Location
You will be based at Sizewell B Power Station within the Outage Management Department. Hybrid working may be available outside of outage periods, subject to business requirements; however, a minimum of three days per week on site will be required. During outage periods and the final stages of outage preparation, you will be expected to work full-time on site.
Who You Are
To be eligible for this EDF industrial placement, you need to be on track to achieve, or have already achieved, a bachelor’s degree (2:2 or higher) in Project Management, Planning or Engineering.
It is a requirement that those who join us have the right to work in the UK. Whilst sponsorship may be a possibility, we reserve the right in our decisions to give priority to those who already have the right to work in the UK.
To be appointed to this role, you will need to meet the criteria for Security Vetting, which will, ordinarily, require you to have been a resident of the UK for at least three of the past five years.
Pay, Benefits and Culture
Alongside a starting salary of at least £26,050 per annum and a market-leading pension scheme, your package will include customisable benefits such as electric vehicle leasing, discounted gym membership, life assurance, tech vouchers, experience days, and more.
At EDF, we believe there are multiple definitions of what it means to succeed. That’s why we offer you the freedom to develop a career that’s unique to you. Here, Success is Personal – it’s your journey, powered by us.
Everyone is welcome at EDF; we’re committed to building a workforce that reflects gender balance, social mobility, and inclusion of minority ethnic backgrounds, LGBTQ+ communities, and those with disabilities.

Some of our roles at EDF attract large volumes of applications. When this happens, we’ll apply the Disability Confident scheme’s guidance on taking practical and appropriate steps selecting disabled candidates who best meet the minimum criteria for the job.
Our Recruitment Process
We'll guide you through every stage and keep you updated along the way. You'll be supported by real people, with opportunities to ask questions, learn more and receive feedback where possible.
