Graduate development programme

17 December 2024

We’re delighted to announce that we are recruiting a new cohort to join our graduate development programme in September 2025.


Graduates will have the opportunity to join us in either Place (in highways or transport development management) or in People and Organisational Change (in portfolio management and transformation) and will rotate in different work placements / projects within their team. Whichever department graduates join, they will take the journey together as part of a group and they will be supported by a learning and development programme and a mentor.

These opportunities are fixed term for 2 years and are for graduates from a range of degree disciplines.

All vacancies are open to both external and internal applicants. We’d love to receive your application. If you’re interested in applying, please make your line manager aware.

The graduate programme is in addition to our well-established apprenticeship programme. There are more than 300 colleagues who are currently completing apprenticeships across all of our departments to develop their skills and knowledge. Find out more about the apprenticeships at Derbyshire.
