Degree Apprenticeship in Electro-mechanical Engineering

Here's what you'll be doing At E.ON, we're more than a provider of gas and electricity, we're shaping a cleaner, more sustainable energy future. Our energy solutions span district heating systems, on-site generation, highways lighting and other innovative energy services that help customers take control of their energy use. Working with the latest technologies, we're always seeking new and improved ways to shape the energy landscape.

You'll work with diverse teams across the business through six-month placements while studying part-time at the University of Nottingham for a fully-funded BEng (Hons) in Electro-mechanical Engineering. Upon successful completion of your apprenticeship, E.ON will continue to support you in achieving chartered status.

During the programme, you'll have the opportunity to select placements based on your interests and career goals, such as:

Designing sustainable district heating systems to help decarbonise cities.
Collaborating with clients on pioneering solar energy projects, supporting their shift to renewable energy.
Optimising the performance of critical assets to enhance energy efficiency and reduce emissions.
Working on advanced technologies such as hydrogen production, heat pumps, and carbon capture solutions. What we need from you

After your first couple of years on placement, we may encourage you to work at one of our operational sites, such as Sheffield or London, to deepen your skills and understanding of the wider business.
