We’ve worked with our most experienced technical experts to develop a comprehensive training programme which gives our Trainees exposure to a wide range of property types and scenarios. You’ll also benefit from an established mentoring scheme. 

You wouldn’t expect anything less from a business with our heritage, would you? What you might not expect is the friendly and resourceful central team providing invaluable support to all our customers and clients; or the commitment to the personal and professional development of all our people.

Do you have that certain something needed to join our team?

Intent on continuing this success, we’re now inviting applications for our January 2023 intake of trainees. It’s a good time to become a surveyor, and an even better time to join .

What’s in it for you?

Sponsorship for the AssocRICS qualification (including payment of all RICS fees) Company car or car allowance Pension 25 days paid holiday plus bank holidays (after AssocRICS qualification) Private medical insurance (after AssocRICS qualification) Death in service assurance Share incentive schemes

Don’t just take our word for it – we’re a little bit biased. So, we asked two of our former Trainees to tell us what they think about life at .

“For me, the most positive aspects of ’s trainee programme, are the excellent training and continued support I received from my mentors. The team provided me with clear and structured stages of training and development, undoubtedly easing my transition to AssocRICS qualification.”

Kevin Cunningham – Former AssocRICS, now MRICS Surveyor 

“’s Trainee Surveyor scheme has been fantastic. It enabled me to kickstart my career as an AssocRICS surveyor faster than I anticipated. I was daunted at times but, via mentoring, classroom sessions, clever tech and lots of support from my Manager, Trainers and colleagues, I’ve achieved my goal, a career to be proud of.” Sarah Shanks-Pell – Assoc RICS Surveyor

Sound interesting?

We may be big, but has always been about quality, not quantity.
