Summer 2020 Opportunities for current Y2 students thinking about one year work placements


There are currently several exciting placements available within Cambridge Consultants, who have been named a Sunday Times top 100 company to work for. They help the world’s leading companies deliver breakthrough products, acting as a research and development function to solve the problems that no one else can. 
 
YINI is delighted to be working with Cambridge Consultants again this year.
 
These are of particular importance to Year 2 students, particularly those considering engineering, applied science or a closely related discipline when leaving Long Road' in the summer of 2020.
 
Placement overview:
 
  • The successful student will have the opportunity to work on real life projects for real clients, building their skills and knowledge whilst making a real contribution to the work of the company. During their gap year they will also work in a small team with other technology scholars to deliver a multidisciplinary project, which they’ll then present to the rest of the company at the end of their gap year.
  • They will have lots of support during their time at the company, including an experienced mentor. In addition, the experience you will gain at the company could count towards membership of professional institutions – for example, the IET and IMechE.
 
Who’s it for? Year 13 students who if successful, would be available to start their paid YINI placement in September 2020 (the role is for up to 12 months, before the student goes to university)
 
Location: Cambridge
 
How to Apply:
Students interested in applying for the role, must complete the following:
  1. Apply to YINI via our website (no charge): https://www.etrust.org.uk/yini-register
  2. Confirm their interest in the role by emailing Lidia Harrington on l.harrington@etrust.org.uk 
 
If any of our students are successful, they will be supported by the YINI scheme throughout their placement, this includes receiving support and additional training opportunities through the company.
