Vantage Power, an electrification engineering company owned by Allison Transmission, runs a two-year graduate scheme in London that develops newly qualified engineers into electrification experts, with self-directed skills development. It asks for a Masters-level engineering degree at 2:1 or higher. The careers page says the scheme opens mid December each year.

“You must have the full and unrestricted right to live and work in the UK.”

The catch: The requirement is for existing unrestricted status, so a student who would need employer sponsorship is not eligible on the wording. The scheme opens mid December, so there is nothing to apply for in October.
