Who We Are

At Network Rail, we're the publicly owned operator of Britain's rail infrastructure.

We're trusted custodians of one of our nation's most critical public assets : Scotland's Railway.

We keep Scotland moving - connecting people and places, supporting businesses, public services and communities - driving economic, social and environmental success.

Our work spans almost 20% of the UK network and between 2024 and 2029, we're investing £4.8 billion to enhance our stations and routes, supporting new passenger and freight rolling stock.

Working together with train operators, our investment will mean a more reliable, climate resilient railway; a better customer experience; and greener, more sustainable travel that links cities, towns, urban and rural communities with each other and with the wider UK.

But it's our people who make this progress possible. At Network Rail Scotland, you'll find an inclusive, supportive and flexible working culture where your ideas are valued, your growth is encouraged, and your impact is real. Join us.

This is your railway - and it's moving forward.

Electronic and Communication Graduate Scheme

Our 2-year Electronic & Communications Engineering graduate scheme will give you the tools, and experience to kickstart your engineering career at Network Rail.

The scheme is focused and centred around developing your knowledge, experience, and ability in all aspects of your chosen engineering discipline alongside improving your awareness of the impact your decisions will have on our passenger and freight users.

You will have a genuine impact on the UK's drive towards NetZero through the sustainable management of the railway infrastructure, as the railway network adapts to the changing climate.

About the role

Your scheme starts off with a period of business familiarisation, during this time you will gain an awareness and understanding of the railway system, across a broad range of disciplines and departments. This time is very precious as it will be the foundation on which the rest of your scheme is built, after which you will begin your longer formal placements within your chosen discipline.

Throughout your scheme, you will be exposed to a wide variety of placements and activities across your discipline. During these placements you will contribute to the delivery of major investment, learn how to manage, and maintain the railway asset efficiently and effectively.

As an Electronic & Communications Graduate you will chose from a range of asset disciplines including signalling, Telecoms and SCADA power distribution systems, experiencing everything from how the railway infrastructure is assessed, maintained, designed, and renewed.

Your experience and skills

Who you are matters

You'll need to have at least a 2:2 in an Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) accredited degree and the flexibility to occasionally travel to attend training opportunities at various locations.

We look for diverse and logical thinkers who can find creative solutions to challenging problems. You should be resourceful, hardworking, good at managing your time and motivating yourself. It is essential that you have great communication skills, are able to engage with people at all levels and be good at building relationships with your peers and colleagues.

What you'll get out of it

In your first few weeks, we will help you to register with, and cover the costs for, the Institution of Engineering and Technology. Each placement and training opportunity will be structured towards you becoming either a qualified Chartered Engineer (CEng) or Incorporated Engineer (IEng). Each year, you are required to submit your quarterly and annual reports to your Mentor to enable you to be assessed against the attributes and sign these off in accordance with your development action plan. This along with your continual professional development (CPD) record will set you on a trajectory to become IEng or CEng within a target of 3-4 years and 5-6 years respectively.

Your learning and development will be further supported with four modules of technical training. The first of these is designed to give you an overview of the engineering disciplines and safety qualification that you will require here at Network Rail. The remaining modules will relate to the specific disciplines you select. There will also be several leadership modules to help develop your soft skills and support you to become one of our future leaders.

After your two-year graduate scheme, you will continue to be supported by your Mentor as you transition into your first appointment, where you will continue with the next step on your professional development journey.

We matter to millions. You could too.

Graduate salary is £32,000 plus £2,000 welcome bonus. We encourage early application as this vacancy will close when a high volume of applications is received.
