Rail
Our teams work on a broad array of projects within the rail and highways markets from flagship projects such as HS2, East West Rail, Sizewell C to essential maintenance and renewal projects with Network Rail, National Highways and local authorities. Opportunities also exist to support other sectors within the AtkinsRéalis business including, Infrastructure, Energy, Nuclear and Defence.
You’ll join one of our design teams and gain technical experience of power and distribution systems (Low Voltage and High Voltage), lighting design and specialist systems engineering skills such as Earthing & Bonding and Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC). To start, you will work within a technical role, working with industry leaders and undertaking a variety of day-to-day project related tasks including:
- Technical report writing.
- Site surveys.
- Preparation of technical design drawings using computer aided modelling.
- Modelling electrical systems using specialised software (Trimble, ETAP, Dialux, Lighting Reality, ERACS, PSpice, Matlab).
- Applying electrical and physics fundamental theory to solve engineering problems.
- Applying sustainable thinking and methods to all projects to help AtkinsRéalis and our clients attain their Net Zero pledges.
We design electrical systems across the network including stations and depots, as well as the lineside infrastructure which powers trains, track and signals, ensuring that they are integrated to provide a safe and reliable rail network. We also design public realm, highway and interior lighting systems.
Secondment opportunities throughout your graduate programme are also encouraged, allowing you to gain a better understanding of project lifecycles. These may include project management or construction, as well as the opportunity to work within other disciplines such as Signalling, Telecoms and Safety Assurance.
We work collaboratively with colleagues across the UK, Middle East, North America, Australia and Asia, allowing you to work on projects across different global regions. Working on flagship projects is different countries may also provide the opportunity to work abroad, should this interest you. Working as a graduate in our Transportation (Rail and Highways) teams will allow you to gain a variety of experience including technical, management, commercial and leadership to enable you to pursue a fulfilling career with AtkinsRéalis and develop as a well-rounded engineer or project manager.
The scheme will enable you to develop towards chartership with a relevant institution such as the IET, CIBSE or ILP. This will be paired with progression opportunities within AtkinsRéalis to progress to more senior roles.
