Technology Cyber Security
We care about cyber security and it's critical that we protect our data and systems. You’ll receive specific cyber security training and projects to work on, so you can develop your skills and knowledge. You’ll work as part of a global cyber security team, collaborating with, and learning from, a range of specialists.
Our cyber security team protect our organisation. We use the latest technologies to increase visibility and protection of systems, services and data. To do this, we need to stay ahead of the latest threats and continuously improve our tooling, procedures, and processes. We work collaboratively with our software and systems engineering teams to support security throughout the development lifecycle. We also build proactive monitoring and responses to security events.
During your 10-week paid summer programme, you’ll have a broad range of responsibilities. Your placement will be in one of our security functions, ranging from security operations to vulnerability management, security testing, or monitoring and capability. You’ll have the opportunity to work on incident response, security platforms, cyber assurance and much more. You’ll also contribute to a global cyber defence effort by evaluating, securing systems, and responding to incidents.
A successful internship with us can guarantee your place on our Technology Cyber Security Graduate Programme when you graduate - before you’ve even started your final year of study.
Who we are looking for
We’re looking for interns who want to be part of a cross-functional, diverse and global team. While it’s not essential you have a degree in computer science or a Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) subject, you must be able to demonstrate your technical ability and a passion for cyber security. This is assessed during the application process.

On campus, you'll find subsidised restaurants and coffee shops, as well as a Tesco Express to pick up your lunch or last-minute essentials. We also have our Heart Building, a place where colleagues can connect and come together, to unlock innovation and collaboration and a place where they can network and socialise.

Your experience with us
Welcome
We’ll kick off with you spending some time learning more about our business and your programme. It’s a great opportunity for you to meet other interns and make some new connections. We’ll then introduce you to your team, so you can get to know more about your role and the area you’ll be working in.
Programme structure
You'll start off by spending some time in store, where you'll get involved in what our colleagues do everyday to serve our customers and communities. You’ll then join your team to gain real-life experience in Technology as well as network, learn and develop your skills with other interns and colleagues throughout your programme.
Where next?
Throughout your internship, you’ll be encouraged to develop skills and gain experience that will support you in your future career. You’ll also receive valuable feedback on how you’ve performed during your 10 weeks to help understand your strengths and areas to develop further.
