Buddy programme
Starting your career as a graduate is an exciting journey, and having a buddy will make it even better. Your buddy will support you from day one (even before) and are handpicked to work with, inspire and help you throughout your first year and beyond. The best bit - they were a grad last year, so they have been in your shoes! Your buddy is here to keep you informed, bounce ideas off, learn from and ask questions. Enjoy an open-door culture where you are encouraged to ask questions, learn, develop and be your best.
