About the Programme: The Savills Apprenticeship Insight Programme is designed for students who are considering applying for a Savills apprenticeship starting in September 2027.

The programme is open to individuals aged 16 or over who have completed their GCSEs and are currently in Year 12 or Year 13 (first or second year of college), or who have progressed beyond this stage in their education. This unique one-week programme provides participants with the opportunity to shadow a current Savills apprentice, gaining valuable insight into the world of property and the apprenticeship experience.

Participants will develop a better understanding of the different career pathways available at Savills, learn about life as an apprentice, and gain first-hand exposure to a professional working environment. During the programme there will be the opportunity to network with other students, current apprentices and directors from across the business.

Surveying:

Surveying involves measuring, valuing, protecting and enhancing physical assets. Surveyors guide projects and provide professional advice across land, infrastructure, construction and property.

The Insight Programme placement is within the Development division.
