Looking to gain experience at a leading European energy trading house with real growth potential? Want to work alongside industry experts, building experience and skills that will help you flourish in your early career? Then one of our year-long Industrial Placements could be just what you are looking for.

Join us at the UK headquarters of RWE Supply & Trading (RWEST) in Swindon where we currently have opportunities in the following area:

Choose Communications & Events

If you are passionate about storytelling and believe in the power of effective communication, this could be the perfect opportunity for you. As part of our team, you will help shape and deliver creative internal communication initiatives that bring the strategies of RWEST and the wider RWE Group to life for our employees. Working closely with experienced communications professionals, you will contribute to engaging campaigns, content development and employee communications across a range of channels. You will also gain hands-on experience in the planning and delivery of events, supporting the team in creating impactful employee experiences that inform, connect and inspire colleagues across the business.

The team sits within the broader Corporate Affairs function, giving you a unique opportunity to develop a strong understanding of RWEST and gain exposure to a wide variety of business topics, projects and stakeholder groups. This placement offers valuable insight into both strategic communications and event management within a leading international energy trading company.

Job requirements and experiences

As a team, we need creative and flexible thinking that helps us to produce content that will inspire and engage our employees. You will be someone who is organised, solution-oriented, and who finds satisfaction in seeing your hard work come to life as you bring an event from conception to reality.

Your work will have a real impact in uniting a global business and creating a positive company culture, and that's why we need the right person for our team. You will need to be self-motivated, enjoy teamwork, and be willing to step out of your comfort zone to develop both personally and professionally.

We're looking for students who are in the penultimate year of an English, Communications, Media Studies, Event Management or similar degree who are ideally on course to achieve a 2:1 or higher. What you must have is:

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills with fluent English.
• IT proficiency including the ability to use AI-enabled productivity tools.
• Strong organisational skills.
• Enjoy creative thinking.
• Good collaboration and teamwork skills.
• Self-motivated and comfortable acting on your own initiative.
• A positive mindset and enthusiasm to try new things.

From here, you'll have a community of support

At RWEST we have an energy to be inclusive and believe diversity drives success. Reaching your full potential means being able to bring your whole self to work and being respected for the different opinions, strengths and experiences you bring.

Our industrial placement programme has been designed to give you the chance to gain highly valuable work experience and skills - and potentially secure yourself a place on one of our graduate programmes. From day one, you'll be making a real contribution to your team. A current placement student will be allocated as a Buddy to all new joiners, enhancing the on-boarding process and overlapping your start date to ensure seamless support as you begin your journey.

To help you get the most out of your placement, we provide lots of support and development opportunities, including in-house courses and on-the-job training with everything you need to make the placement a success. Alongside the day-job, you'll be provided with comprehensive behavioural skills training with our expert partner, Cappfinity. This will enable you to harness your strengths from day one and identify new ways to utilise the key Skills That Build Skills. This includes interactive sessions where you can learn from our facilitators and your own peers, and self-led elements to support your application of learning back in your day-to-day role.

RWE is committed to creating a diverse and inclusive environment - we value your passion, your willingness to learn and your desire to thrive. Even if you don't have all the above skills, need flexible working arrangements or other adjustments not yet listed here, we'd love to hear from you.
