The eight-week programme has run for four years, and provides students in local areas with insight into working in the industry<\/h2>\n

The HS2 paid placement programme<\/a> was developed by Balfour Beatty VINCI, the construction partner for HS2.<\/p>\n

The programme gives university students first-hand practical work experience in roles associated with their line of study, to help them gain employment more easily after graduation.<\/p>\n

Thirty-two students were chosen for the 2025 programme<\/h3>\n

The students come from the University of Birmingham, Birmingham City University, Aston University, and Coventry University.<\/p>\n

This week marks the first week of the programme, with students working on placements throughout the engineering, quality assurance, procurement, IT, commercial, and finance and environment departments.<\/p>\n

One of the students, Anastasia Docherty, from Leamington Spa, said: \u201cI\u2019m really excited to join Balfour Beatty VINCI over the summer months and learn as many new skills as I can. Being part of such a large infrastructure project like HS2 is a great opportunity for any student looking to get an insight into the construction industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another, Malaika Fatima, from Ward End in Birmingham, said: \u201cI live close to a HS2 construction site in Washwood Heath and I see the progress being made on a daily basis. This has inspired me to join Balfour Beatty VINCI\u2019s summer placement programme, as a way of kick-starting my career and learning more about the HS2 project.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cProviding the perfect opportunity for students themselves to earn and learn\u201d<\/h3>\n

HS2 is currently supporting 33,000 jobs, with a third of these located in the West Midlands. 710 of these are on an apprenticeship, while 1,870 locals that were previously out of work have secured their employment.<\/a><\/p>\n

Julie Venn-Morton, HS2\u2019s senior skills & inclusion manager for the West Midlands, said: \u201cWe\u2019re exceptionally proud of the partnerships we\u2019ve formed with our local universities and how we\u2019re working together to help home-grown talent thrive.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor the fourth year running, we\u2019ve opened the gates to our construction sites and offices to enable a new cohort of engineers, technicians and digital specialists to hone their skills and make a valuable contribution to HS2 – the UK\u2019s biggest transport infrastructure project.\u201d<\/p>\n

Naomi Bates, skills, education and employment business partner at Balfour Beatty VINCI, said: \u201cWe\u2019re looking forward to welcoming our new students this summer, of which a third are women and some are returners from previous summer placements.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe programme delivers benefits for HS2 by exposing us to new and exciting ideas, while providing the perfect opportunity for students themselves to earn and learn as part of a world-leading infrastructure project.\u201d<\/p>\n
