About Gatwick
Gatwick is the UK’s second largest airport and is a vital piece of national infrastructure.
Their vision is to be the UK’s most accessible airport and the airport for everyone, whatever your journey.
Join Gatwick’s Civil Engineering Graduate Programme and gain hands-on experience delivering civil engineering construction projects in and around Europe’s busiest single runway airport.
What is the Graduate Programme
You will work across a diverse portfolio of civil engineering projects, including terminals expansions, upgrades to taxiways and runways and installing sustainable infrastructure across the airport.
Work on multi-million projects and be involved from inception through to design, construction, handover and completion.
You’ll be supported throughout the graduate programme and on your route to Chartership by senior civil engineers across the business.

It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
