Start date: September 2022

Application Deadline: Monday 31st January 2022

The programme starts with 9 x month long placements in each of the departments. The successful candidates will then meet with the Managing Director to reflect on their performance during the placements. Together they will decide on a department / career path. The candidate will start work in their new department and begin a part-time further education course on day release. 

What We Are Looking For

The scheme is open to anyone in their final year of school or college studying towards A levels or an equivalent qualification, although recent school leavers will also be considered. The scheme is currently only available within St William, so applicants must be prepared to work at one of our London office's and be willing and able to travel to developments across London and the Home Counties.

Attitude is more important to us than your academic attainment. We are looking for enthusiastic, articulate and resilient people with an open mind and a desire to learn and work.

Although there are no minimum grade requirements, trainees will be expected to go on to part-time further education after their first year with Berkeley, so sufficient grades to continue in education are required.
