The recruitment process and application

Who are you?

Upon graduating, you will be faced with multiple big decisions that will shape your future career. Perhaps you know exactly where that will take you, or you are open minded and ready to explore. Either way, our Programme is tailored to support your future development. We see our Graduates as part of our leadership pipeline - that means you might not necessarily fast track straight into a people management role on day one, but we will provide you with the skills and experience to start that journey

We value any previous work experience that you might have, such as student jobs, voluntary work, internships or part-time work in any sector. You must have a bachelor’s or master’s degree – the field of study may vairy.
