Job description

Temporary Industrial Placement - Simulation Engineer (DE324)

The Original British Motorcycling Company.

At Triumph, we are driven to make the best motorcycles in the world. Building iconic motorcycles that celebrate our past whilst embracing the future - through bold design, original styling, purposeful engineering, and a genuine passion for the ride.

The placement will be based within the Design Department where your role will be similar to that of a full time Simulation Engineer. The work will be real, interesting and relevant to your studies, helping to develop and test a broad range of skills drawn from the knowledge you have gained at university. This simulation team role is focussed on FEA but may also include other simulation such as CFD and 1D analysis. Other tasks may include 3D CAD design work, as well as liaising with design teams and internal departments.

Students aren’t taken on as extra resource; they are needed to fulfil the role of an engineer and contribute to the design and development of a production motorcycle. The design department is made up of small, very focussed teams, which will give you the opportunity to quickly take on a position of high responsibility.

A 12-month Industrial Placement position at Triumph is unique from other placement opportunities in that you work hands-on within the business and will play a key role in our future and existing projects. You will be placed within the department and develop your existing skills by working in parallel and collaboratively with our experienced teams.

Triumph is able to offer graduate employment opportunities for Industrial Placement students who perform strongly during their placement year, and Triumph has the opportunity to also offer final year sponsorship deals to students whom it aims to bring back into full-time employment after graduation.

An Industrial Placement in Design is ideally suited to Automotive and Mechanical Engineering degrees.

Please note that this role is only open to university students who need to undertake a year out in industry as part of their degree course for the academic year 2025-2026. We will be looking to onboard successful applicants in July 2025 for a 12 month period.

Full details of the job description and person specification can be found in the downloadable job files.

A variety of competitive benefits, including an enhanced holiday scheme, favourable pension and life assurance scheme. Motorcycle, clothing, and accessories are available to purchase at a heavily discounted rate. An iconic place to work; join us for the ride!
