Your time on the graduate scheme will span across a 2-year period, and you will complete between two to four rotations of either 6 or 12 months in length depending on the project type and department.

**Generalist Graduate Scheme Overview**

Our Operational teams deliver an incredibly wide range of services to our clients all over the country. You could be a part of the largest facilities management contracts in the UK where we work in partnership with some of the UK’s biggest hospitals or help to mobilise our newest contract wins. A life in Operations is never dull and as a graduate you will gain experience of what it takes to work alongside large, diverse teams in a fun and rewarding industry.

You will have a passion for putting the customer first, working in teams and constantly looking to improve and innovate. Over the course of your graduate scheme, you will gain an understanding of how we support our customers and how to deliver innovative solutions to our communities and clients.

As a graduate on the generalist pathway, you will typically complete 4 x 6-month rotations to explore various areas of the business and become as rounded as possible before specialising at the end of the scheme.

In your first year of the scheme, you will build a solid foundation of skills and knowledge. You will complete one placement on site with our operational teams and one placement in an operational support service function role such as in our Business Development, Finance, Procurement, Digital Transformation, Sustainability & Corporate Social Responsibility or Mobilisation teams.

In your second year, depending on your strengths and interests, you may move onto one of our other pathways such as Operational Management and do a longer 12-month placement to gain more responsibility and experience. Or you may do another 2 x 6-month placements across operational and functional areas.

We will provide a wide variety of training opportunities to develop your operational knowledge, leadership, and management skills so that you can excel in your role. From day one you will have a buddy, usually a graduate in the year above, and you will also have a mentor throughout the scheme.

Over the course of the programme, you could gain exposure to:

- Operational management
- Commercial and Financial understanding
- Developing Client Relations
- Technical knowledge
- Health, Safety, Environment and Quality delivery
- Equans vision and purpose
- Subcontractor and people management
