And we are now taking applications for the Autumn 2027 cohort of our Early Careers Graduate Scheme.

Uniquely, we recruit-to role – and right now we’re looking for Graduate Electrical Engineers to join our innovative Building Services division. Given Sweco’s global recognition as a successful Building Services Consultant, and our history of delivering the world’s most sustainable buildings such as the Bloomberg European headquarters and achieving the highest ever BREEAM score, we’d like to hear from graduates that share our ethos and values but are driven to truly transform the world around them.

As a Graduate Electrical Engineer you will:

• Work as an integral team member on some of the most prestigious construction projects in the UK, working alongside world class architects and innovative engineering teams.
• Analyse electrical requirements of buildings for central plant, lighting and small power to determine loads and incoming power requirement.
• Develop high and low voltage electrical infrastructure design.
• Design lighting, small power and fire alarms to coordinate with architecture and interior design.
• Attend workshops and meetings with the architect and project team.
• Liaise with manufacturers to keep abreast of latest technologies and applications.
• Write technical reports, design presentations and prepare tender drawings and specifications.
• Use electrical distribution and lighting software as well as CAD including Auto Cad and Revit.
• Visit construction sites and witness system commissioning.

Our unique, personalised programme is designed for passionate, forward-thinking graduates who want to change the world around them, who will thrive in a dynamic team environment, and who are hungry to collaborate not only with fellow graduates, but also with mentors and leaders across the business.

We want to hear from you if you…

• Have a degree relevant to the role you’re applying for.
• Have less than 12 months of relevant work experience (excluding placements).
• Are confident using Microsoft Office and other relevant digital tools.
• Are driven, proactive, and solution-oriented.
• Can work in the UK without restrictions either now or in the future. This is a permanent role, and we’re looking for candidates who can grow their careers with Sweco without a time limit.

Our Graduate Scheme offers a two-year blended learning experience, with a tailored programme delivered virtually and face-to-face. You’ll have the chance to network and grow with the 2027 cohort. Personal growth will be supported by our Early Careers team, mentors and subject matter experts from across the business.

Structured masterclasses focus on Internal Insight, Skills Development, and Subject Matter Expertise, helping fast-track your development as you pursue professional accreditation. The programme builds your confidence early in your career and gives you a platform for genuine impact within Sweco.
