What are we looking for?

Our culture and values are what make Hoare Lea such a great place to work, so see whether they match with how you approach things. We are looking for friendly, ambitious and confident people, with a flexible and resilient attitude.

Award winning training

Our IPD (Initial Professional Development) Scheme provides mentoring, support, guidance and training to set you off on the right path – one where you are thinking about how you can continually grow and develop.

Whether you join as a trainee, apprentice, technician or graduate, the scheme will guide you as you build the knowledge, skills and experience you need to practice as respected professionals in your field. For those working towards Professional Registration, the IPD Scheme will guide you to know when you are ready to apply and provide you with a portfolio of evidence to support your application.

As leaders in our field, we know that our continued success is because of our people. We recognise and celebrate this with our annual ‘Us at our best’ awards, which has a category, especially for our ‘Rising Stars’.
