Intern Programme
Cairn’s Intern Programme provides the exposure and hands on experience to help you decide which career pathway in construction is right for you.
Because we know it’s critical to understand the different aspects of working on-site, we have merged your training and education with hands on experience throughout your 3–6-month Intern Programme, so you can really get to grips with the discipline you might want to pursue in your career.
A Culture of Learning & Innovation
Working within a collaborative team, as an Intern you will join a fast-paced, progressive environment where you are empowered to learn, develop your skills, experience different responsibilities, contribute to new ideas and have fun with your peers in the process.
By joining our Intern Programme, you can expect:
- Structured rotations

- Learning and development opportunities
