Had enough of feeling like a spare part on someone else’s project? You know the drill. Endless meetings. Shiny titles. But your actual input? Minimal. If you\’re itching to own something from day one – not just follow instructions – keep reading. This isn’t your standard \”graduate scheme\” with three years of coffee runs and PowerPoint hell. This is a Trainee Project Engineer role where you’ll get thrown into the thick of it. Real projects. Real responsibility. Real impact. From the moment the job kicks off to the final bolt being tightened – you’re in it, steering the ship. What’s different? You’re not just shadowing a Project Manager. You are the Project Manager-in-training. You’ll be front and centre, running delivery schedules, ordering kit, managing suppliers, leading internal reviews, and being the go-to for clients and contractors alike. The company? They build serious engineering systems, proper physical stuff that gets installed, tested, commissioned and used. No vapourware here. Think offshore rigs, big industrial kit, high-stakes infrastructure. They solve real-world problems, not \”scale\” the next meal delivery app. Why bother? Because you’ll learn more in one year here than three anywhere else. You\’ll get ownership, support from sharp senior engineers, and the chance to actually lead. No red tape. No corporate fluff. Just straight-up engineering. And yeah, it might mean a few offshore visits or early mornings, but that’s how you’ll grow. You’ll love this if: You hate being micromanaged You’re wired to take ownership and figure things out You like making plans, and making them happen You get a buzz from solving tricky technical puzzles You’re not precious – happy to get hands-on and deal with suppliers, clients, contractors, whatever’s needed Engineering degree? Great. Bit of hustle and backbone? Even better. Still reading? Good. Drop your CV or just say hey – we’ll take it from there
