Centrica Year in Industry 2027

Pays £24,539 a year.

No published policyYear in Industry

Unconfirmed. Centrica publishes no sponsorship policy for its year in industry, so we cannot state a firm answer. Centrica runs a Year in Industry pathway alongside its shorter summer internships, with named tracks in DTS/Tech, Environmental Analyst, Finance, Procurement and People. The programme page lists the specialisms and locations but does not state pay, degree requirements or a sponsorship policy, so this is an honest gap rather than a refusal.

Centrica Year in Industry: at a glance

Centrica's Year in Industry programme gives students a year of hands-on experience on projects that contribute to real business outcomes. As a Procurement Intern, for example, a student gains experience in an area such as strategic sourcing, supplier and contract management, supply chain, sustainability or commercial risk. Interns are supported through structured development, experienced mentors and line managers and buddy support, and need to be open to travel and, for some placements, relocation. Source
