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.
