We are so excited to announce a brand-new partnership with one of the highest profiles / top secret defence agencies in the United Kingdom, DNE!
Defence Nuclear Enterprise (DNE) are a high security organisation that are part of the United Kingdom’s Ministry of Defence. The Ministry of Defence protect people, territories, values, and interests at home and overseas. Through their strong-armed forces and in partnership with allies, DNE help ensure the nation’s security, support our national interests, and safeguard the UK’s prosperity. Working for the government / civil service is a highly rewarding career which is why they are ranked among one of the best sectors for school leavers to work in.
DNE are working on some of the most top-secret missions whilst helping to keep the country safe using some of the best technology and systems in the world. And what’s more incredible is that you as a school leaver can join them straight from school on one of their student programmes.
On Monday 27th February, between 5pm-6pm we will be hosting an Insight Evening with DNE virtually. This will allow you to learn a lot more about the organisation as well as the defence industry and you will have the opportunity to take part in a hands-on top-secret workshop. DNE will also be launching some brand new apprenticeships, so if you have an interest in working for the government and would like a future career in this sector then this will be ideal for you.
Places are strictly limited due to the workshop element so if you’d like to apply please do so ASAP.
