Job description

We care about cyber security and it's critical that we protect our data and systems. You'll receive specific cyber security training and projects to work on, so you can develop your skills and knowledge. You'll work as part of a global cyber security team, collaborating with, and learning from, a range of specialists.

Our cyber security team protect our organisation. We use the newest technologies to increase visibility and protection of systems, services and data. To do this, we need to stay ahead of the latest threats and continuously improve our tooling, procedures, and processes. We work in collaboration with our software and systems engineering teams to support security throughout the development lifecycle. We also build proactive monitoring and responses to security events.

During your 10-week paid summer programme, we will provide you with a broad variety of responsibilities. Your placement will be in one of our security functions, ranging from security operations to vulnerability management, security testing, or monitoring and capability. You'll have the opportunity to work on incident response, security platforms, cyber assurance and much more. You'll also contribute to a global cyber defence effort by evaluating, securing systems, and responding to incidents.

A successful internship with us can guarantee your place on our Technology Cyber Security Graduate Programme when you graduate - before you've even started your final year of study.

Programme start date: June 2025.

Everyone's welcome

To us, inclusivity means everyone's voice is heard and you feel comfortable bringing every part of yourself to work. We celebrate and value everything that makes you, you. We make sure that all colleagues have equal access to opportunities. We're a big business with diverse working patterns and lots of business areas. So, we can find something that works for you.

What we are looking for

We're looking for interns who want to be part of a multi-functional, diverse and global team. While it's not essential you have a degree in computer science or a Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) subject, you must be able to demonstrate your technical ability and a passion for cyber security. This is assessed during the application process.
