Working at The Institution of Engineering & Technology

We want to make our world a better place. We support the engineering and technology communities to engineer a better world. We’re motivated by seeing the tangible results of what we do and how it changes our society in positive and inspiring ways. It’s what we’ve done for the last 150 years, and what we’ll carry on doing in the future.

At the IET, making our world a better place starts by creating a better place for our people. We want people who share our enthusiasm for the opportunities we provide and who are excited to make a real difference. Not just in engineering a better world for society, but a better working world for all of us too.

With us, no two days are the same. You’ll be playing your part in the incredible outcomes of our varied and one-of-a-kind projects. Whether it’s qualifications or publications, research or influencing, fundraising or marketing, events, education or support, there’s no doubt our work is far-reaching.

We also want you to enjoy coming to work so we create a welcoming environment that’s a good place to be. You’ll have freedom in your role and your ideas will be given space to flourish. We include everyone and treat each other with respect. All we ask is that you’ll do the same.
