Our recruitment process

Our programmes

Our early careers programmes offer people like you, who are taking your first steps into the construction industry, an opportunity to grow from expert-led programmes, supporting you to learn cutting-edge techniques while fast-tracking your development and career path at ISG.

Our award-nominated rotational programmes, developed by in-house ISG experts, have been created to give our early careers talent the depth of understanding they need to succeed in our industry.

Graduates

Our graduates have worked on some of the most innovative projects within the construction industry, developing a breadth of knowledge and skills in construction management, quantity surveying, technical service management, planning, design and other business enabling functions; creating a solid foundation to help support career growth.

Industrial Placements

Our industrial placement programme has been designed to give you an insight into on-site life. Working on high-profile, live projects, you’ll get the opportunity to bring the theory you are learning to life, taking real-world examples of your work back to university to compliment your studies.

Apprenticeships

We understand that different people take different routes to reach their end goal. So, if going to university full time isn’t for you, then we can help you achieve your career aspirations. While studying towards a degree, our apprentices learn from industry experts on site, gaining hands-on experience and delivering projects that will inspire generations.

Our people are our most important asset, and we aim to support and develop them in the best way possible so they can achieve their personal and professional ambitions. We offer a competitive salary and an industry-leading benefits programme, More for You, which is designed with our people's physical and mental health and wellbeing in mind.

“For graduates looking for on-the-job training that equips you with the right tools and knowledge to succeed in the construction industry, ISG’s graduate programme is the right choice.”
