I heavily recommend STFC to students as many other students will be working there during their year and there are HR coordinators dedicated to ensuring that it works out, there are at least 30+ not listed roles that are not computing specific across the organization’s various facilities.

A quick caveat, as with most years the STFC ends it’s IY recruitment quite early because to my understanding that is when science placements usually stop recruiting. My understanding is that this year it is October 29th, 2023 for all of them.
