About The Role
Join BMT’s multidisciplinary Data & AI team within BMT’s Applied Technology capability to join us in the application of data science and artificial intelligence to real customer problems.
Our work combines consultancy, research and practical delivery in Defence, government and other regulated or high-consequence environments. Depending on the project, you might explore and prepare data, develop and evaluate analytical or AI models, build a prototype tool, or help turn a promising approach into a solution that can be implemented and supported.
You will work alongside experienced Data Scientists, AI Researchers, Data Architects, Data Engineers and Data Governance specialists. This breadth will help you build strong foundations, understand how different Data & AI disciplines fit together and gradually shape the direction of your career.
This is a graduate development role. We do not expect you to arrive with experience in every area. We are looking for strong foundations, curiosity and the potential to grow. Through BMT’s two-year graduate programme, project experience, mentoring and tailored technical development, you will build capability in applied Data Science, AI and professional consultancy.
What you will do
With support appropriate to your experience, you will:
- Explore, prepare and analyse data to understand customer problems and identify useful evidence;
- Develop and test analytical, statistical, machine-learning or AI approaches;
- Evaluate performance, limitations and risks, and communicate findings clearly to stakeholders;
- Contribute to prototypes, tools and data products that address user and customer needs;
- Apply coding best practices including, version control, review, testing and clear documentation;
- Work with specialists from Data Science, AI research, software, data engineering, architecture, governance and assurance;
- Work with domain specialists such as Cyber, Safety, Environment and Naval Engineering
- Contribute across the development lifecycle, from early research and experimentation towards implementation and service delivery;
- Take an active role in your learning, seeking feedback and sharing knowledge with the team.
What is the Graduate Programme?
As a BMT graduate, you will be part of an exciting 2-year personal development programme that will equip you with the knowledge, skills, and experience that you will need to propel your career to the next level.
You will be paired with a mentor who will support your technical development within BMT and you will receive tailored training within our Data and AI team. You will also be paired with a friendly buddy to help with questions and ease your transition into work.
About You
At BMT, our values shape everything we do. We're looking for curious, analytical graduates who enjoy using data and technology to solve complex real-world problems. You may be early in your career, but you'll bring a logical approach to problem-solving, a willingness to learn, and the confidence to ask questions and seek evidence when tackling new challenges. You'll enjoy collaborating with colleagues from different disciplines and be able to communicate your ideas clearly, whether to technical or non-technical audiences.
You will have a degree, equivalent qualification or demonstrable experience in a discipline involving programming, data, quantitative analysis or scientific problem-solving, such as Data Science, Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Mathematics, Statistics, Engineering, Physics or Economics. You'll have practical experience using Python for data or analytical projects and a foundation in data preparation, statistics, machine learning and AI principles. Just as importantly, you'll bring curiosity, integrity, adaptability and a genuine enthusiasm for continuous learning.
Whilst experience in Defence or consultancy is not required, you should be interested in working within regulated, high-consequence environments where quality, integrity and the responsible use of data and AI are essential. Experience with technologies such as SQL, Power Query, Git, cloud services, APIs, data pipelines, machine learning or generative AI would be advantageous but is not essential.
What's Next?
If you’re ready to use your skills to help tackle meaningful challenges and contribute to a more sustainable future, we’d love to hear from you. Apply now and join a team that values innovation, inclusion, and long‑term impact.
We only accept applications via our ATS. CVs sent directly to HR or operational teams will not be considered. Any unsolicited candidates will be treated as direct applications, with no fees payable.
