All of our graduate schemes are based on rotations: placements in different areas of the business that last between eight months and one year. You'll be given real responsibility from day one and different objectives to focus on for each placement.
If you join our Business Leadership or Commerical Marketing programme, you'll begin with a 3-month placement at one of our customer contact centres - so you can get to know our customers first-hand. All other streams begin with their first business placement.
You’ll start by gaining a solid foundational knowledge of how our businesses operate. During this time, you will be able to learn from more experienced members of your team how to approach a variety of challenges and business problems.
Your next two placements are designed to stretch and challenge you.

As your career aspirations become clearer, we’ll help you to identify possible permanent roles and there may also be opportunities for you to gain further professional qualifications, depending on your stream.
