This programme operates on a watch - share - do structure

If you are the kind of person that wants to keep on learning - both for personal development and to get stuck into a new profession - this programme could be a great fit. Graduates can expect to join meetings or projects in an observing and absorbing capacity at first, then move on to sharing their views, approach and debriefing, and finally leading meetings, processes or projects, delivering internal presentations and facilitating conversations with your team. You'll need to be open to visiting offices and travelling to client sites; that's all part of the professional relationship skills that we're looking for.
