Engineering Summer Internships

Engineering Summer Interns

We are looking for Engineering Summer Interns to join our Projects & Development (P&D) team, which plays a key role in innovation and sustainability work. We are seeking motivated interns to support us with a variety of work, based in the London office.

Projects & Development turns Anglo American's strategic intent into real-world outcomes by shaping opportunities, designing solutions, and delivering capital projects that create long-term value. We are an integrated team combining project, technical, sustainability, and innovation expertise to lead the development and delivery of some of Anglo American’s most complex and strategic initiatives.

• Investigate technical initiatives and innovations applicable to Anglo American’s projects and developments.
• Prepare literature studies, technical reports and presentation packs.
• Assess the technical feasibility, economic potential, strategic fit, complexity, risk and impact of various initiatives for Anglo American’s projects and developments.
• Work on an innovation challenge in mining, potentially focusing on designing an AI‑powered method for identifying breakthrough opportunities in a priority area: ore sorting, leaching or tailings management.

This internship offers an excellent opportunity to explore meaningful and diverse work within responsible and sustainable future mining. You will gain valuable hands‑on experience and insight into how technical, innovation, and sustainability considerations are integrated into project development.

• A proactive and responsible approach to work.
• Good communication and teamwork skills.
• Science or engineering research experience, either academic or industrial.
• Knowledge of conducting literature studies and basic techno‑economic analysis.
• Currently in the second year or above of a Bachelor’s degree, or having recently completed a 2:1 Bachelor’s degree (or equivalent) in an Engineering or STEM‑related field.

This is a paid internship; accommodation is not provided for the duration of the internship.

Anglo American is an equal opportunities employer.
