We are Centrica! We’re so much more than an energy company. We’re a family of brands revolutionising a cleaner, greener future. Working here is # MoreThanACareer - we’re powered by purpose. Together we can make an impact that will truly change tomorrow. Whether you’re developing cutting-edge green tech, helping customers on the front line or simplifying operations behind the scenes.  

Your work here isn’t just a job – it’s a mission. We all play a vital role in energising a greener, fairer future.

Energise your career

Your journey is just as important as ours.    

All of our graduate schemes are built upon placements – meaning you’ll have the opportunity to work across a range of brands and business units, guiding teams, driving change and challenging the status quo.    

We are a Flexible-First employer, which means we live and breathe a culture of trust and flexibility when it comes to where and when we work. Although we don’t have mandated office working, we would like to travel on-site regularly as we believe immersing yourself into our social and collaborative culture is vital in making the most of the opportunities we offer and will give you the best possible head start in your career.    

But you won’t be doing it alone. With a network of buddies, mentors, and experienced line managers ready and waiting to support – we’re with you every step of the way.    

We want to invest in your future so you can help re-write ours.

Our main office is in Windsor. We’d love for you to be open and willing to travel to our different sites to really get the most from your time with us. We provide a Welcome Bonus of £3,000 to help you do this. This will give you a better experience of how our people and teams work together across Centrica.  

What we need from you: 

  • Expecting a minimum 2:1 degree (2:2 if combined with a Masters) 
  • Willing to relocate  
  • Have the right to work in the UK 
  • Available to start the programme on 30th September 2025   

We’re a people place  

We’re building a workplace where everyone feels they can belong – and we’re looking for people to add to this culture, not fit in with it.    

We know that every voice matters, and every new perspective makes us more empathetic and reflective of the 10 million customers we serve. You are welcome here for who you are, no matter how you see the world, how you express yourself or the journey you’ve been on to get here. It’s our differences that will give us the power to revolutionise the future of our planet.   

With 13 different colleague networks, there’s space to find your community, beyond the graduate sphere.    

 Here’s what's in it for you:   

As an Energiser, you get a bumper reward package bursting with benefits including huge discounts on your energy bills and our British Gas & Hive products. Plus, you can choose from loads of extras to add in if you’d like to. Whether it’s a brand-new electric car, a gym membership, or extra days off. Our rewards are designed to give you the choice of benefits that support both you and your loved ones, making sure that you’re covered no matter what life throws your way.     

Oh, and if that wasn’t enough, each year we give every colleague a chunk of free Centrica shares, as part of our group-wide profit share scheme. We’re all about making things fair. That’s why every single colleague receives exactly the same benefits, no matter who you are.   

About Centrica

Be part of more

We’re so much more than an energy company.

We're a family of brands, revolutionising how we power the planet.

We’re made up of eight brilliant businesses that each make their own impact across every stage of the energy chain.

We Make it. Store it. Move it. Sell it. Mend it.

We do energy differently. We do it all.

That’s why we’re more – and why working here is more than a career.

Powered by Purpose

We’re all united in the same mission: Energising a greener, fairer future.

We’re not just part of the energy transition – we’re leading it. Through innovative green products, intelligent storage solutions and developing smarter ways for customers to use and save energy, we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to leave a lasting legacy on our planet.

We’re also living our powerful commitment to create positive change in our local communities. Each year, our colleagues are given two paid volunteering days, to support causes that matter to them – and, in 2023, we donated over £1million to local projects that they had identified.

We're a People Place

We’re building a workplace where everyone feels they can belong – and we’re looking for people to add to this culture, not fit in with it.

You are welcome here for who you are, no matter how you see the world, how you express yourself or the journey you’ve been on to get here. It’s our differences that will give us the power to revolutionise the future of our planet.

From parenthood to pride, our networks help our people find their community within Centrica. They challenge us to think and act differently and open opportunities for learning and allyship across the business.

Energise your Career

Your journey is just as important as ours.

All of our graduate schemes are built upon rotations – meaning you’ll have the opportunity to work across a range of brands and business units, guiding teams, driving change and challenging the status quo.

We want to invest in your future so you can help re-write ours. Over half of all our recruitment is prioritised internally – so when we say we’re big on opportunities. We mean it.

We offer more than just a salary. If we do well, so do you. We give all colleagues a slice of our annual profits as company shares. From a great pension, to healthcare and energy discounts, we make work, worth it with access to a host of additional benefits like retail vouchers, gym passes, additional holidays and an electric car scheme.
