About Us:
Countryside creates places of character designed to strengthen people's sense of belonging and build lasting value for all. We achieve this through creating new homes and neighbourhoods of enduring quality.
We develop private and affordable homes on greenfield and brownfield sites, on private and public sector land. Our success in creating residential developments and major new communities that generate value and benefit local communities has given us a reputation that sets us apart. We also specialise in estate regeneration including partnership housing.
We recognise that the key to success for any company is its people. One of our key objectives is to be an employer of choice and to attract, develop and retain excellent staff. At Countryside you will find a confident, professional team with a wide range of skills and abilities. We take pride in everything we achieve and the high standards that we set. We work hard to make it possible, but we have fun delivering it!
We continue to realise the benefits of developing the skills and abilities of our people via the Investor in People standard, which we first achieved in 2000. We invest heavily in the development and training of our employees. This is principally being realised via the Group's highly successful Training Academy, and our Graduate Management Training Programme.
If you are considering a career in the development industry and you're looking for great opportunities to develop your career with an innovative, responsible developer, then our Graduate Management Training Programme could be for you.
The Programme aims to provide graduates with the foundations for a successful longterm career with the Group.
Support is given to all trainees at every stage of their programme, training and academic study. This includes a Mentor who is assigned to all trainees for extra support and guidance throughout the training programme.
We're looking for committed and enthusiastic graduates who want to become future pioneers of the development industry. At the end of the training, we hope all the trainees will wish to stay with Countryside and continue to develop their career with us.
We are looking to recruit Graduates for our Development, Strategic Projects, Construction Management, Land Buying and Regeneration Teams, and have opportunities in both the South East and North West of the country.
Our two year Graduate Programme will see you placed with the most relevant department to your chosen career path, and will then include secondments to other key areas of the business to ensure you develop the broader expertise required of our future managers.
We will also support Graduates in becoming chartered, achieving the relevant professional qualification for your chosen role. As an equal opportunities employer, Countryside does not discriminate on age, but to be eligible for our graduate scheme you need to be in your final year or have already been awarded a degree.
