Job description

Currie & Brown has an opportunity for a graduate to work within the project management team to be based in our Glasgow office.

We recruit exceptional graduates of all degree backgrounds who aspire to be project management leaders in a construction consultancy environment.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Having full involvement in projects from the start: the role is varied and no two projects are the same.
• Managing relationships with clients, contractors, and colleagues.
• Conducting individual study in your own time towards achieving chartered surveyor status.

Training and progression (APC programme):

We will provide training through our industry-leading structured RICS APC programme. With your commitment and our support, you’ll become chartered in a minimum of two years (longer if a conversion course is required).

Attaining RICS accreditation is a standard requirement for Currie & Brown’s professional employees. The company seeks to produce high-calibre practitioners through its rigorous programme. Candidates will commit to ongoing studying and document preparation, while regular assessment ensures progress and identifies where further study or support is required. The programme includes:

• Self-study outside business hours.
• Bonus payment on completion of APC.
• Mentorship from an experienced colleague.
• Training sessions with an external APC coach.
• Quarterly assessments.
• Coaching in soft skills.
• Individual face-to-face and telephone support in the six months leading up to the final assessment.

Once you gain chartership, you can join a formal development programme designed to move the focus of learning into areas of commerciality, leadership, and business development.

As an APC candidate, you can enjoy the following benefits:

• Salary reviews twice a year.
• 25 days’ annual leave, increasing to 27 after five years with the company.
• Option to ‘buy’ more annual leave.
• Pension scheme membership, with a matched employer contribution of up to 5%.
• Company car allowance upon achieving chartership.
• Life insurance at twice your salary.
• Healthy living subsidy in the form of a taxable annual payment of £400 towards the cost of a sports club or gym.
• Professional membership subscription.
• An interest-free season ticket loan.
• Bike to work scheme.
• Opportunities to get involved with CSR activities.
• Social fund and social committee to support activities for all employees.
• ‘Congratulations’ payments when employees get married or enter into a civil partnership.
• Dress-down and early finish on Fridays.
