Warringtonfire Graduate Scheme
Launched in 2022, the Warringtonfire Fire Safety Graduate Scheme has been developed to help find the best engineers to work in the unique and specialized fire safety industry.
Comprised of four modules, this is a unique opportunity to work with one of the fastest-growing organizations in the Testing, Inspection and Certification (TIC) sector.
When you join our graduate scheme, you will receive a permanent contract with Warringtonfire. Over the course of two years, you will gain valuable experience and understanding of the different functions of our business and build the foundations for a career in the TIC industry.
The programme will involve some travel between our UK and/or European locations.
For willing candidates, there may also be opportunity to benefit from spending time on a placement in one of our other locations in the UK or further afield.
Unique aspects of our graduate scheme
- Laboratory experience – You’ll get a year’s worth of exposure in our laboratories, ensuring a much more rounded experience
- Flexible placement – you will gain experience in all aspects of testing and certification, and the opportunity to select a department in year two for a 3-week placement.
- Career Growth - We empower you to take charge of your career, and reward excellence and integrity with growth and development.
Who We’re Looking For
The fire safety industry is fast-paced and dynamic. To maintain our market-leading position, we need our colleagues to be the same.
Working alongside our existing colleagues, our successful graduates will be analytical and inquisitive in nature and possess strong problem-solving skills.
Whilst there is a preference for graduates to have completed their study in an engineering or science discipline within three years prior to starting our programme, we are always happy to consider applications if you graduated even earlier.
You’ll need to be methodical, organised and capable of meeting strict deadlines. It’s also very important that you have excellent numeracy skills and strong attention to detail.
A lot of your work with us will include liaising with technical colleagues and clients, so you’ll be prioritising and reaching decisions quickly and effectively, and need to be able to stand by and justify the decisions you make.
At various stages of the programme, you will need to present to your peers around the company, so you’ll be building on your written and verbal communications skills, as well as your presentation skills. Our teams will be there to support you.
At Element, we always take pride in putting our people first. We are an equal opportunity employer that recognizes diversity and inclusion as fundamental to our vision of becoming “the world’s most trusted testing partner”.
