The importance of having a future supply of well educated, enthusiastic, highly skilled people is critical to our success in an increasingly competitive global market. To Rolls-Royce, providing quality work experience placements is one element of enabling students to be able to make informed career decisions and ultimately aim to attract potential students into the world of Engineering and/or Rolls-Royce.
Our work experience policy 
is a commitment to schools and students across the UK that we will provide quality work experience placements. The policy clearly highlights the benefits of work experience to all parties involved, key principles and how we deliver the Rolls-Royce work experience policy.
Rolls-Royce supports a range of work experience placements, for clarification on the types of placements we accommodate, please see the 14 – 19 work experience placement types.
We are no longer accepting new application forms for one-week work experience placements for Academic Year 2011-2012, apart from Inchinnan and East Kilbride.
Rolls-Royce’s 14-19 work experience strategy is to support placements for students in compulsory or Government funded full-time training or education, to undertake a one-week experience of the working environment to broaden knowledge and experience.
Application forms must be submitted at least four months prior to the placement date.
Students under 18 must be within reasonable travelling distance to the Rolls-Royce site.
If you meet this criteria we would be happy to review your application form.
Please note: submission of an application form does not automatically guarantee a placement, this will depend on a suitable placement being available and is mainly in relation to placements that take place within the academic year, term-time only. It is imperative for insurance purposes that the school/college gives their approval and provides a point of contact during your placement week, without this detail will not be able to consider your application form.
