Graduate Training Programme

This scheme is for graduates looking for a career in property, who want to become accredited by the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and work towards becoming a qualified surveyor.

• Two year programme
• Two seat rotations
• Work in asset management, investment and development
• Generous package and benefits

A cohort of four graduates will complete 12 month placements in both Development and Asset Management. These will be based within our Greater London and Thames Valley teams, working across our dual state-of-the-art UK headquarters located in Oxford Circus and at the heart of Europe’s largest single-ownership trading estate in Slough respectively.

During your two year programme at SEGRO, we will support you to complete your APC (Assessment of Professional Competence) through the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS).

We welcome applications from keen individuals who are passionate about property, that have studied any degree discipline and are committed to studying to complete their APC. If you do not or will not have a RICS accredited degree, you will complete a RICS accredited Masters in addition to your APC during the programme via the University College of Estate Management. This route will require 20% of your time towards study.
