Undergraduate Placement Year 2026 - Product Management Undergraduate - Combustion Solutions

• Intern
• Legal Entity: Bosch Thermotechnology Ltd.

We’re the nation’s favourite heating brand, here to warm up people’s homes, lives, and futures.

From boilers, hybrids and heat pumps to solar thermal and smart controls, we’re givingour customers plenty of choice. With cutting-edge tech and research, we’re right in the thick of the drive for a better future of home heating.

It’s not all tools and tech. People are the real heart of our company. We connect with our customers to deliver genuinely helpful support, and we care about our employees and give them enriching careers. We work hard, we work together, and we work with a cause – delivering brilliant customer support and exceptional engineering.

As an organisation of more than 1,600 employees, we also take our role in the communities we serve seriously. From giving away free heating systems for community spaces, to our charity, education, and volunteer work – we’re no strangers to rolling our sleeves up, getting stuck in, and helping out.

If that sounds like something you’d like to be a part of, we’d love to meet you.

Come and work #LikeABosch at Worcester Bosch.

Join us for your placement year in summer 2026! Our internships are designed to give you an insight into what it's like to work for a world-renowned brand with a culture of support and community.

Help us define the future of the UK heating and hot water industry.

We are on a mission to make home comfort green. Our role in Product Management is to ensure the success of our products now and in the future. We must define, build, and deliver new products that will help the UK decarbonise heating and hot water in both domestic and non-domestic buildings.

Our Product Managers are the CEOs of the Product – responsible for defining and executing the company’s Product strategies (Price, Product, Place, & Promotion).

Here’s what you’ll experience as a Product Management Intern.

• Decoding the Market: Become our expert on what customers need and what competitors are doing. You’ll dig into the data, benchmark everything, and find the opportunities others miss.
• Building the Business Case: Transform insights into a powerful plan. You’ll prove why the product idea is the right move for the business and for a greener UK.
• Designing & Launching Products: Go from concept to reality. You’ll help define what the product does, how it works, what it costs, and how we’ll launch it to the world.
• Driving In-Market Success: Once a product is live, you’ll manage its performance. You’ll analyse its success, adjust its strategy, and make the calls on promotions, updates, and end-of-life decisions.

Essentially, you’ll be at the centre of it all, collaborating with every team from Marketing and Sales to Engineering and Finance to bring world‑class products to life.
