Nordic Nuclear Trainee Program

Do you want a career in the energy industry? Our trainee program, Nuclear Heros, is a unique opportunity for you who are at the beginning of your career. The 12-month long program gives you a comprehensive education in nuclear power and offers a good opportunity to build your network with nuclear heroes in the Nordic countries.

The programme begins with a joint induction where you’ll get to know the industry, the business and the trainees in the Nordic programme: Uniper, Vattenfall, Fortum and TVO. You’ll get an understanding of the business, the organisation and how the different parts fit together. It’s an opportunity to connect with people and start networking right from day one.
