BAM Nuttall Graduate Training Scheme:
Every year we place new graduates on site and allow
them to become important members of the construction team.
We offer training schemes, working towards membership of professional
institutions. ‘Under Agreement’.
However before you graduate or even start your university
course BAM Nuttall can provide site placements and a chance
of sponsorship!
BAM Nuttall Graduates
We recruit both graduates and HNC/D students for careers in
civil, mechanical, electrical, geotechnical and environmental
engineering and quantity surveying.
Join us and you will enjoy a unique opportunity to gain the
knowledge, skills and competencies you need to become one
of the senior managers of the future.
You will receive regular mentoring that allows you to gain
significant ‘on-the-job’ experience, complemented
by formal training courses.
We actively encourage career paths that lead to membership
of recognised professional institutions. In addition, our
staff development scheme gives all our employees the opportunity
to realise their full potential.
Our Graduate training Schemes are approved and monitored
by the following professional institutions:
Civil Engineering Graduates
Starting as an Assistant Engineer you will progress to incorporated
and chartered status.
Right from the time you start you will be assigned a senior-level
engineer who will be your mentor, and this person will support
you through every stage of your professional development.
The agreed training period involves approximately two years,
under supervision, on site followed by up to one year in a
design office. You can either join our design team or go on
secondment to a recognised Consulting Engineer’s practice.
We offer ‘Further Learning’ as part of the approved
Training Programme to acknowledge the academic difference
between a BEng and MEng course.
This provides the equivalent ‘on-the-job’ training
to achieve MEng status to progress to full Chartered membership.
Case Study
Ben Goodman –
BSc (Hons) Civil Engineering, University of Plymouth
‘I found out about BAM Nuttall whilst searching
for a summer placement during my first year at university.
My interview with the company was great and I felt that I
could really fit in.
As a graduate, I’m now working on the reconstruction
of a pier, which again is really exciting and challenging.’
Quantity Surveying Graduates
As an Assistant Quantity Surveyor you will be an integral
part of your project team, getting involved with financial
and contractual management, advice on procurement, and resolution
of disputes in order to help your project achieve a successful
commercial outcome.
Right from the time you start you will be assigned a senior-level
quantity surveyor who will be your mentor, and this person
will support you through every stage of your professional
development.
Joining us as a graduate Quantity Surveyor you will begin
our approved graduate training programme. Our primary professional
institution for quantity surveying staff is the Institution
of Civil Engineering Surveyors but graduates wishing to follow
a route to the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors will
also be catered for within the training programme.
Case Study
Sylvia Twum –
Intermediate Quantity Surveyor
‘Joining BAM Nuttall Ltd as an Assistant Quantity
Surveyor and then progressing to Intermediate level in the
last three and a half years has given me a variety of opportunities.
Throughout this period I have developed in my career through
the enormous amount of support, training and experience from
my line managers, team members and the company as a whole.’
Mechanical, Electrical and Environmental Engineering
Graduates
We have similar training schemes in place for Mechanical and
Electrical Engineers.
Both these schemes are similarly approved and monitored by
the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and the Institution
of Engineering and Technology respectively, and will provide
opportunities to get the necessary training and experience
in preparation for the relevant professional examinations.
As with the Civil Engineering Programmes we are looking to
include further learning to accommodate the BEng graduates.
We are currently progressing with a Training Programme, which
will be approved and monitored by the Institute of Environmental
Management and Assessment, for graduates qualified in Environmental
Engineering.
We also provide an approved training programme to accommodate
our geotechnical engineers with the Institution of Materials
Minerals and Mining.
Case Study
Ilya Savva – CEng MIMechE M&E Engineer
‘My career began with a position at BAM Nuttall during
my university vacations, as an Engineering Assistant on the
London Underground Connect Project, in March 2000. I experienced
many aspects of a large construction project with regular
site visits to assist in surveying and installation. I learnt
fundamental principles of design and quality management which
have aided my career ever since.
Following my graduation I returned to BAM Nuttall and was
offered the permanent position of Design Team Leader. The
opportunity of being responsible for my team provided management,
client liaison and project programming experience. As my career
progressed I took on greater responsibility within the department.
I was promoted to M&E Engineer and have overseen complex
multi-disciplined M&E projects on site. As an engineer
for BAM Nuttall I have been pleased with the support offered
to me by senior engineers, and with the opportunities and
experiences offered through the diverse range of projects
that the company undertakes.’
