Dyson

Working as a Graduate or Intern for Dyson

Dyson is a global technology enterprise. We solve the problems others choose to ignore, with surprising new inventions that defy convention and simply work better. We’re driven by progress and thrive on the challenge of relentless improvement. We’re growing fast and our ambition is huge – more categories, more locations and more people.

Since 1993 Dyson has been finding new ways to solve real-world problems – from vacuum cleaners with revolutionary cyclone technology, to a hairdryer with intelligent heat control.

There’s nothing conventional about being a graduate or intern at Dyson. They are encouraged to think differently, challenge convention and be unafraid to make mistakes. Dyson wants them to be creative, collaborative, practical and enthusiastic. But most of all, Dyson is hugely passionate about what they do. With a mission-based approach to work graduates and interns gain invaluable exposure to the inner workings at Dyson through tough projects with real responsibility.

The Dyson UK Technology Campus is home to their first Research, Design and Development (RDD) Centre, located in the Cotswolds where the Dyson story began. The RDD and technology teams are Dyson’s lifeblood. It’s where their engineers challenge convention, build, test, fail, refine, and then fail again.

You could be supporting Dyson’s New Product Innovation team, New Product Development team, Technical Development team, Test team, or even one of their secret projects! Wherever you are, you’ll be working alongside industry experts – exploring solutions relentlessly, persevering through failure, and searching for answers in unlikely places. In addition to a stimulating work environment, there’s always plenty going on outside of the office, too. It’s a fulfilling place to start working life within a community of people who inspire each other.
