Industrial Placement
See your future with a new perspective
Help shape our digital future and your own by joining us on an industrial placement. You will not only join an inspiring environment with a team spirit and can-do culture like no other in an organisation where people matter!
Our challenging and exciting industrial placement programmes will provide you with an ideal opportunity to expand on the theory you have learnt at university and will allow you to develop hands-on experience in a fast-paced but supportive environment.
During your industrial placement, you will have the opportunity to work on real-world projects alongside experienced professionals and our senior management team. They will share the wealth of their knowledge and experience with you and guide you through your time with us.
Irrespective of the programme you choose, you will be helping to shape the digital future with us!
We welcome applications from all degree subjects (there may be a need for some technical IT experience for some) from all universities and at any predicted classification so there really is an opportunity at Computacenter for you!

Why you should join us!
Our 13-month placements are ideal if you need industry experience as part of your degree or you want to enhance your employability skills, as you will gain real insight into corporate life in the technology sector.
You will also:

Spending a year of your degree course with us is every bit as challenging and stimulating as it sounds. Our placement programmes are an ideal way to develop ‘hands-on’ experience in a face-paced environment. You will learn how the latest digital technology is delivered to enable the success of some of the world’s famous and renowned organisations and have exposure to a range of business roles.
