Inspiring the next generation of graduates
Our Graduate Management Development Programme
First step into the workplace after university
Our Graduate Management Development Programme is designed to give people the confidence they need when taking that first step into employment. The year-long placement is fully paid and is cleverly structured to allow experience in each area of our business. This helps new graduates gain fresh skills on a variety of projects, work with senior members of the team, collaborate with our international offices, and attend valuable training courses.
Your first few months
Part of our selection process is to integrate people into our business as quickly and as smoothly as possible. Everyone has an induction programme to introduce them to all parts of our business and to understand different roles and responsibilities. A thorough induction is key to retaining our people and helping them to be effective at work.
Here's what some employees said about our induction programme:
“I remember being introduced to everyone on my first day and that made me feel really welcome.”
“My induction and training was thorough and there was an assurance that no question was seen as stupid. A lot of time is spent on understanding calls and listening to others before you are involved.”

“I was not sure what area I wanted to go into and it offered a wide range of roles. I also wanted to join a smaller organisation to feel that the work I was doing was making a direct impact.”

Service Delivery Manager, JOSCAR community, UK
“During my time on the programme, I was able to attend numerous events relating to the Defence and Aerospace Industry, including the Farnborough Air Show. This let me better understand the industry that I was working within and see the outputs of my work through face-to-face interactions with buyer and supplier organisations.”

Service Delivery Manager, FSQS Community, Spain
"The opportunity to spend 5 weeks working in the Madrid office as part of my third rotation stands out. It was an amazing chance to really get to know a new country and only served to reinforce my desire to pursue a permanent role in the Spanish team.”
