Looking to strengthen your aspirations for your future career? The GS Verde Academy is designed to help you realise your full potential and prepare you for a successful career.
The Academy is a programme for graduates wanting to kickstart their career, and for meaningful skills and experiences across various areas of the business environment to be built-on and experienced first-hand as you evolve from graduate to full time professional.
Our Digital Marketing Programme is an opportunity to learn all about social media marketing, email campaigns, public relations, graphic design, and more while gaining hands-on experience and working collaboratively with our Communications team.
Our Business Admin Apprenticeship is a great way to kickstart a career in administration and gives you a clear idea of what it is like to work in a corporate environment. It is not only an opportunity to enhance your organizational skills, but your interpersonal skills too. Business admin involves managing relationships with colleagues as it is about managing and organizing data.
At GS Verde Group our legal team works across a wide range of law, including corporate law, commercial law, and employment law. Our Business Law Programme gives graduates a unique opportunity to gain experience in a variety of legal areas, from the drafting of commercial contracts to employment contracts.
Our Finance and Accountancy Apprenticeship is an opportunity to learn and contribute to every step of the business transaction process, from deal structuring and valuation to due diligence and completion. You will also learn how to manage Companies House compliance as well as tax compliance.
The GS Verde Academy is looking for enthusiastic graduates who are eager to jump head-first into a fast-paced corporate position. Someone who is confident and organised will fit in well in our dynamic multidiscipline environment.
While the Academy is a graduate program, the Academy isn't just for university graduates. As long as you are able to commit to a full-time position and have at least a GCSE Grade C (or 4) in English and Maths, you are welcome to apply.
Ideally, you will have ambitions to build a professional career and be ready to contribute pioneering ideas that will both upgrade your experience within the Academy and contribute to the evolving strategies within the GS Verde Group.
Academy members should be hard working and able to optimise their time with GS Verde Group to deliver successful and collaborative progression.
As well as being a member of the Corporate Finance Team, Legal team, etc., you will also be a member of the Academy cohort with your fellow graduates.
The cohort provides another support network beyond your chosen discipline, as well as extra flexibility. If you joined the Academy to pursue a Communications role but are later drawn to Corporate Finance, you have the opportunity to explore that discipline too.
Our collaborative, multidiscipline and flexible approach means that GS Verde Group is an excellent place to start your career journey and develop and nurture your skills.
