As well as a comprehensive pension plan, we also run a regular Save as You Earn share purchase scheme and offer a health insurance plan as well.

We are committed to maintaining the physical and mental wellbeing of all our people, through our ‘Be Well’ programme which offers discounts on certain products, advice and support for a range of issues.

Apprenticeships, traineeships and school and college leavers

 

Our Early Careers programmes are designed for school/college leavers and university graduates to begin a challenging and rewarding career.

After leaving school or college studying full time isn’t for everyone and we know how enthusiastic some people can be to start learning about their chosen profession on the job.

If you’re eager to start getting hands-on, practical work experience and gain a recognised qualification, then our Trainee Programmes could be the foundation for your career in Galliford Try.

Our Apprenticeships and Trainee Level Programmes have carefully selected training partners, including the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB), local colleges and universities and national apprenticeship providers, to ensure you get the most enriching learning experience available and allow you to grow your peer network.

As you will be hired to a permanent job, you will  experience working to real deadlines, involvement in live projects and benefit from the experience of the team around you.

The programme you choose and the qualification you gain will be tailored to you. There is some helpful information below about what we offer to help you decide which scheme is most suitable.

Graduate Scheme

 

 

As a Galliford Try graduate, you will be enabled to add value to the projects you will be working on. You will gain the experience and support of the team around you and create meaningful relationships with your peers and seniors.

The Graduate Development Programme is a structured training programme, made up of six key modules. The programme itself lasts for two years which you will attend in parallel to your permanent job. The programme is bespoke to Galliford Try and has been specifically designed to develop your interpersonal and leadership skills, which complement the hands on technical experience that you will gain in your role.

We understand how important professional development is to graduates too, so if you decide to work towards your professional qualifications while on the programme, we can provide all the support you require to complete this. You will also have access to the GT Academy, an online portal of content that will aid your professional development both while on the Graduate Programme and onwards in your career.
