On the Security Graduate Programme, you’ll help keep our projects, people and information secure across marine and nuclear work at Rosyth, gaining practical experience in a highly regulated environment.

You’ll work with teams across the business to ensure the right security measures are in place from the start of each project and within supplier contracts. This includes identifying and managing risks, and working with customers to meet required standards.

You’ll also contribute to improving security policies and raising awareness across areas such as cyber, information protection and physical security, while building relationships across teams.

By supporting audits and working alongside experienced Security Managers, you’ll develop a strong understanding of how security operates in practice – equipping you with the skills and experience to build a career in this important and evolving field.

This two-year graduate programme is based at Rosyth Royal Dockyard and is designed to give you broad experience across a range of projects.

Alongside developing your understanding of site security, you’ll work on a variety of on-site projects and contracts, including major shipbuilding programmes such as the Type 31 frigate programme, building a strong practical understanding of how security operates within a defence environment.

Rotations are flexible, with placement lengths varying depending on project needs. This means you may move between different areas throughout the programme, gaining exposure to a wide range of work and developing diverse skills.

As you progress, you’ll have the opportunity to shape your experience by aligning placements with your interests and career goals, helping you build expertise in the areas that matter most to you.

From day one, you’ll receive structured support, tailored training, and dedicated mentorship to help you excel throughout your programme and beyond.

You’ll join our Graduate Development Programme, featuring expert-led masterclasses on communication, personal branding, resilience, and wellbeing.

To support your professional development and broaden your knowledge, you’ll also be enrolled in a range of specialist courses, including the DISA Role of the Facility Security Controller, Introduction to Personal Security and Vetting, and IT and Cyber Security, as well as WINS Nuclear Security Fundamentals.

You’ll also be supported to gain membership with The Security Institute, with the opportunity to progress to Chartered status.

When you complete the programme, you’ll move into a permanent role within our Rosyth Security team, where you can build on what you’ve learned and continue to develop your expertise. You’ll also have ongoing support to progress towards professional chartership.

From there, your development doesn’t stop. We’ll support you as you grow into more senior roles and take on greater responsibility. Through the Babcock Role Framework, you’ll have a clear view of how your career can progress, with mapped-out pathways, development opportunities and the tools you need to get wherever you want to go.

We want you to feel supported, valued and excited about what’s ahead. That’s why we offer a comprehensive package designed to support your…
