Company Overview

KICK-START YOUR ENGINEERING CAREER WHERE INNOVATION MEETS IMPACT

At TT Electronics, we’re looking for enthusiastic and ambitious graduates to join our Commercial Graduate Programme - a brand-new, two-year scheme designed to accelerate your development and set you up for a meaningful, long-term career in business development and sales.

Role Overview and Responsibilities

Starting in September 2026, based at our Manufacturing facility in Fairford, Gloucestershire this programme puts you right at the heart of our manufacturing operations. From day one, you’ll gain hands-on experience in inside sales and customer account management.

Through a series of structured rotations across inside sales and new business development, you’ll build a strong commercial foundation while taking on real responsibility. You’ll learn how we use our CRM to manage opportunities and insights, contribute to the monthly reporting cycle, and develop your market awareness through regional workshops and hands-on collaboration. You’ll also gain exposure to bid preparation and, as your confidence grows, begin owning opportunities within the new business sales funnel.

Upon successful completion of the two-year scheme, you’ll have the opportunity to progress into a permanent role at TT Electronics, building a career that grows with you. If you’re looking for responsibility, variety, and the chance to leave your mark early in your career, this is where it begins!

To ensure full integration with your team and to maximise your learning experience, all our graduate roles are site-based.

Alongside role-specific training, you’ll receive professional membership and support obtaining relevant certifications, providing industry recognition, access to learning resources and publications, networking and event opportunities, and enabling you to engage in volunteering that enhances both your experience and professional profile.

And it doesn’t stop there! Depending on your chosen career path, we’ll also fully fund and support you with your professional accreditation.
