Our graduates join us at different stages of their career, so many of them are still with us today! Some of our graduates join Morgan Sindall Construction with non-construction related degrees and go onto to study post graduate qualifications relevant to their career path.
Due to the nature of our work a high proportion of our graduates work in site based roles in disciplines such as site or project management, quantity surveying and design management.
A number of our graduates are also building their careers offsite in roles not always associated with the construction industry including bid management, marketing, finance and human resources.
Regardless of their role you’ll be interested to know that not all our graduates have joined us from a typically construction-based qualification or background, having found that the experience developed in STEM subjects or creative or management qualifications such as Business, English or Design have provided them with the interdisciplinary skills to kick start a career in construction.
At Morgan Sindall Construction, we believe that technical skills are important; but even more critical to your success is the willingness to learn, ability to work in a team, be open to change and demonstrate motivation to make a difference to the communities we’re striving to build and improve for future generations.
When you join Morgan Sindall Construction, you’ll work with the team as an ambassador to promote and influence future generations to our exciting and thriving industry. This may include, representing Morgan Sindall Construction at careers events in schools and colleges.
"As a young graduate embarking on your first ‘real job’ it is great that you are provided with insights and guidance on how to manage yourself and others in the workplace. I have thoroughly enjoyed the graduate programme so far. It has supported my development into my role and helped me to map out a clearer direction for my future career."
Emma Sharman - Graduate Quantity Surveyor
We typically recruit for the following year’s Graduate Programme and our planned summer and year out placements between September – December of the year before you are due to join us.
Ad hoc placements, site-based and virtual work experience may be able to be accommodated if the team has availability at any given time of the year.
As part of our 24-month graduate programme you will gain first class on-the-job experience in your role fully supported by line management and the wider network of skilled colleagues in the business. The graduate development programme provides key skills relevant to your technical discipline, personal development and professional body qualification.
Your development is important to us. So right from the very start, you will be supported by a number of experienced and professional colleagues providing you with the experience and exposure to develop and achieve the professional qualification which is right for your chosen career path.
