During your apprenticeship, you’ll be embedded in Babcock's Skynet Service Delivery Wrap (SDW) programme. The Skynet system provides secure satellite communications to the UK and NATO armed forces, enabling personnel to stay connected anytime, in any environment, anywhere on Earth.
You’ll work four days a week from one of our key engineering locations – either Hawthorn (Corsham) or Oakhanger (Bordon) – where our teams help to maintain and modernise the UK’s sovereign space communications infrastructure. Accommodation expenses will be covered when travel away from your home base is necessary, including visits to Babcock locations such as Ashton House (Bristol).
As you progress, you’ll rotate through our Skynet SDW engineering teams, gaining insight into how each area supports the wider system. You’ll assist in a variety of technical tasks that grow in complexity as your skills and confidence develop. One day you might be supporting upgrades to communications systems on a Royal Navy warship; the next, testing advanced satellite devices or helping to redesign systems that integrate newly launched spacecraft. You may even help develop subsystem designs that enhance our satellite ground stations.
This is a role with real impact where you won’t just be gaining specialised engineering skills; you’ll be contributing to a mission that helps protect lives and maintain national security.
Training:
During your apprenticeship, you will study for a Bachelor of Engineering with Honours (BEng) in Space Systems Engineering through the University of Portsmouth.
Your academic studies will complement the work you’re doing in the business, with modules covering electronics, mechanical and electrical systems, software engineering and space communications. This blend of theory and practice will help you build a deep and practical understanding of how space systems operate and evolve. You’ll also develop valuable skills in systems engineering, hardware design, and coding.
During term time, you’ll typically spend one day per week at university and four days embedded in Skynet engineering activities. Additional study time will be provided during exam periods and for university project work, ensuring you have the support you need to succeed academically.
Training Outcome:
On successful completion of the apprenticeship programme, you will be invited to apply for one of a range of engineering opportunities within Babcock.
You’ll also have the opportunity to build on your progress toward professional registration as an Incorporated or Chartered Engineer, a recognised benchmark of engineering competence, which can support your journey into more advanced roles, such as Senior Engineer.
As a global organisation, Babcock provides countless opportunities to enhance your skills and advance your career. To support your growth, we’ve introduced the Babcock Role Framework, which outlines roles, career pathways, and development opportunities. With every job mapped to these frameworks, you’ll have a transparent view of the steps needed to reach Senior Engineer and beyond.
