About BP
As a global energy business, BP leads the world in powering a cleaner, more sustainable future. And as our business is so diverse, so are the types of people we employ - from engineers and geologists out in the field, to IT professionals, research scientists, financial traders and retail workers.
Because of this, our teams come from all kinds of different cultures and backgrounds – so your career at BP is always going to be exciting, challenging and full of incredible opportunities. You’ll be joining our Information Technology and Services division (IT&S) on one of these amazing ap-prenticeship programmes.
Study for a data science degree apprenticeship
We’ve embarked on an ambitious plan to modernise and transform through digital. It means more efficiency, more effectiveness and new business models. There’s huge potential for transformation, and you’ll be at the heart of it.
You’ll get to learn new technologies, have an input on key decisions, support the team and be supported in turn, and work with everyone from business people to domain experts. You’ll help us adopt industry data standards, and deliver data management strategies and data transformation routines. You’ll collect, organise and study data to provide business insight. This will include man-aging data, as well as conducting a range of analytical studies. Essentially, you’ll use data to craft views that help us make decisions.
Your love for statistics and complex data sets already set you apart. You’ll also enjoy working with PowerBI, Tableau and Python, and telling a story from data. Whether or not you have a STEM background, you’ll be keen to learn about an exciting new field and technologies.
On our data science apprenticeship, we have partnered with the University of Kent and we’ll pay for your data science degree.
You’ll have the opportunity to take everything you learn from your studies and apply it directly to the business, which will help you develop your career as a data science professional in a world-leading multi-national organisation.
So, who are we looking for?
We believe in hiring people with the right core competencies and interest, rather than specific technical experience. That’s why we welcome applicants from a range of academic subject backgrounds. Most importantly, we’re looking for people who really want to work in a global business, and have a drive to support the people aspects of our business agenda.
We’re looking for people who like working at-pace, love doing it right and believe that data can help drive phenomenal decision making. You will be embedded with a dynamic data-focused team, with the resources of the world's largest IT department and leading IT vendors at your fingertips. We will help you along the way but you possess a spark that drives you forward and are comfortable operating with a degree of autonomy.
To be successful, you must be committed and motivated to studying towards a qualification. You must also be able to work on your own initiative and as part of a team.
Recruitment process
Online application - this is your chance to show us what motivates you
SJQ - a set of untimed questions will look to see how you match up with BP values
Online tests - these will check your numerical, verbal reasoning and error checking abilities
Assessment centre - a motivation and values-based interview, a group exercise and lunch
Offer and feedback - a firm offer or guidance on how to succeed next time

If you’re studying A-levels or completing further education, you must be due to complete your qualification/s in 2020 (we’re unable to progress applications for students who will be part way through their studies when the programme starts).

When you’re building, manufacturing, inspecting or repairing some of the most advanced engines in the world, the margin for error is, quite literally, microscopic. That’s why we invest so much in training our Practical Apprentices. We provide a salaried job and the support you need to gain nationally-recognised qualifications. More than that, with the chance to get hands-on experience with our engines or products, we offer the sort of exciting, real-world exposure that you simply can’t get anywhere else.
The programme
In your first year, you’ll gain a strong foundation in the practical skills you need to work on our products in our Apprentice Academy in Derby, or with one of our approved training providers across the UK. Over the following three years, you’ll broaden and deepen your knowledge through a range of attachments within a defined business, where you’ll work with and be supported by some of our top engineers. Along the way, you’ll work towards completing your Apprenticeship standard and gain relevant engineering qualifications.
You’ll be assigned a specific role to develop into which could include Fitter, Machinist, Composite Technician (Bristol Only), Maintenance Technician, or Welder/Sheet Metal Worker/Fabricator. You’ll be offered the chance to express a preference at application stage but we can’t guarantee you’ll be offered your preference as this will depend on the location you’re recruited to and business need.
What you’ll do
This is hands-on work. So whether you’re producing, building or maintaining Rolls-Royce products, or are making and maintaining the tools we need to a high standard, you’ll be making a big impact. Throughout your apprenticeship you can expect to train on some state-of-the-art products, equipment or machinery. All while being guided and supported by engineering experts.
What you’ll need
We’ll want to see creativity, an agile approach and a passion for practical engineering – you’ll need to be keen to get stuck into real work in a factory-based environment. Numeracy is important, and you should be a great team player. You’ll have to learn fast and have the discipline to balance studying for a qualification with the demands of your role. You’ll need a minimum three GCSEs (or equivalent) in Maths and English Language, plus either Engineering, Design & Technology or Science (excluding Biology), all at grade 4 or C or above (obtained or predicted).
Beyond your qualifications, we want to see evidence that you're genuinely interested in developing a career in engineering. For instance, we'd like to hear about how you tinker with cars, bicycles or motorbikes; or about an engineering project you've done at school or work, or a club you've been involved with.
What you’ll get A competitive salary starting from £12,302 per year
A competitive pension, and 33 days’ holiday per year (inclusive of bank holidays) Career support from day one Nationally recognised qualifications
Who we are
Whether we’re building the world’s most efficient large aero-engine or supporting NASA missions on the edge of space, Rolls-Royce is all about innovation. We invest £1.4 billion every year into research and development, and file more patents annually than any other company in the UK. Working at Rolls-Royce means being part of a global team of 54,500 bold, curious pioneers, creating cleaner, faster, more competitive power. It means looking to the future, and shaping the world we live in.
