The Kent Internship Policy is a global initiative to attract high potential interns into our business. It was created not only to identify and attract a future wave of talent, but also to support our local communities and give back to our interns’ educational institutions.

An internship at Kent, is designed to be enriching for both students and the company in several ways:

• Internships give students the opportunity to gain valuable work experience in the energy industry and make connections in professional fields they’re considering as a career path.
• As an internship program requires an investment on behalf of both parties, the return on that investment for the company is developing the next generation of talent.
• It enables the student to be the best they can be. An internship provides the student with a broad base of valuable early work experience in line with their university studies.
• An internship program prepares and introduces students to Kent culture and values so when they graduate, they may be considered to apply for the Graduate Programme or other fulltime open opportunities.

Kent commits to a meaningful and purposeful internship experience by:

• Ensuring the internship will include challenging projects that have the potential to make positive contributions and impact on the business.
• Providing projects that compliment academic programs and/or career interests.
• Giving broad exposure and introduction to the organization and industry.
• Providing regular supervision, coaching, and mentoring.
• Enabling the intern to establish a professional network.
• Engaging with the education establishment to get agreement of the work plan/assignment with the academic supervisor.
