Early careers
Do you want a career that’s for the bold? Where you’ll be energised and inspired by the people around you and diversity of thought is a superpower?
It’s time to power your curiosity. Welcome to PA.
A career at PA will take you places
Our early careers programmes give you the opportunity to power your curiosity and make a difference from day one. You’ll be working with our teams as they focus on the future, pioneering change and breaking new ground on varied and purposeful projects.
Partnering with clients, you’ll be delivering work that creates a fairer society and positively impacts the environment - such as collaborating with global law enforcement to prevent online abuse, designing, manufacturing and delivering thousands of ventilators to those who needed them during the fight against COVID-19, and prototyping Electric Vehicle Chargepoints, featured at COP26.
I didn't expect to be put on such interesting projects so early in my career. I feel like I've been given responsibility really quickly, which is great.”

Inclusion and diversity
We believe diversity fuels ingenuity. Diversity of thought brings exciting perspectives; diversity of experience brings a wealth of knowledge, and diversity of skills brings the tools we need. When we bring people together with diverse backgrounds, identities, and minds, embracing that difference through an inclusive culture where our people thrive; we unleash the power of diversity – bringing ingenuity to life.
