Following on from recent success, we have had five Knowledge Transfer Partnerships (KTP) awarded over the past few months. Several of these are in recruitment, with a few more coming into the recruitment stage shortly. It’s been a rather busy time within the world of KTP at BU!
We have two vacancies at local Poole-based business, TDSi and one in Southampton with civil engineering company, R&W Engineering.
As we have a large cohort of final year students finishing their exams shortly, this is an ideal opportunity to advertise these positions to our final year students.
Poole-based vacancies at TDSi
Software Test Engineer – Salary up to £25,000 – 13 month fixed term contract with a possibility of the offer of permanent employment
Firmware Development Engineer – Salary up to £25,000 – 11 month fixed term contract with a possibility of the offer of permanent employment
Southampton-based vacancy at R&W Engineering
IT Systems Engineer – Salary of £25,000 (negotiable) – 25 month fixed term contract with a possibility of the offer of permanent employment
I encourage colleagues to share these job adverts amongst their networks as these are fantastic projects and will provide excellent personal and professional development for the successful candidates.
For KTP enquiries, please contact Rachel Clarke, KE Adviser (KTP) on 61347 or email clarker@bournemouth.ac.uk
