Why Rolls-Royce?

At Rolls-Royce we are proud to be a business that has truly helped to shape the modern world and are committed to always being a force for progress; powering, protecting and connecting people everywhere.

By joining Rolls-Royce, you’ll have the opportunity to work on world-class solutions, supported by a culture that champions belonging, creativity, and your professional growth.

Looking for your first step into high-impact engineering? As a Stress Engineer – known internally as a Mechanical Integrity Engineer – you’ll be part of the team that ensures our products are safe, robust, and ready to perform in the world’s most demanding conditions. From analysing the mechanical behaviour of rotating components to exploring life predictions for engine parts, this role is where deep thinking meets practical application.

This is a hands-on, learning-focused role where you’ll develop your understanding of real-world physics, cutting-edge digital modelling tools and critical systems that power everything from jet engines to defence platforms. You'll work with experienced engineers and be supported to grow your technical expertise, confidence and problem-solving skills.

What you will be doing:

You’ll have the opportunity to:

• Carry out mechanical design and stress analysis, helping ensure our designs meet rigorous performance and safety standards.
• Build and test predictive models for fatigue, fracture and dynamic loading - using real data to validate your findings.
• Learn how to evaluate the full life-cycle of critical engine components, from design through to operation.
• Collaborate with a range of engineering teams to solve technical challenges and improve future designs.
• Contribute to continuous improvement by learning and applying the latest tools, processes and methods.

Who we’re looking for:

• Recently qualified Graduates with limited industry experience, but a passion for Engineering and drive to learn on the job.
• A degree (Bachelor’s or Master’s) in Engineering or a related field.
• An analytical mindset with a strong interest in materials, mechanics or structures.
• Curiosity, drive and the willingness to learn from data, experimentation and experienced peers.
• An awareness of modelling software (e.g. ANSYS or equivalent) is helpful, but we’ll support you in developing those skills further.
  

Our behaviours drive us - we put safety first, do the right thing, keep it simple and make a difference. We’ll expect that of you, too.

What we offer:

We offer excellent development opportunities, a competitive salary, and exceptional benefits. These include bonus, employee support assistance and employee discounts.

Your needs are as unique as you are. Hybrid working is a way in which our people can balance their time between the office, home, or another remote location. It’s a locally managed, discretionary arrangement. As a minimum we’re all expected to attend the workplace for collaboration and other specific reasons, on average three days per week.

CLOSING DATE: 31st July 2025, 12pm (GMT)

Assessment centres for this programme will take place in July and August.
