Employment opportunities

Stories from our interns

My manager and colleagues have been wonderfully supportive throughout my placement. They made me feel welcome and included from the outset. My manager has been incredibly attentive and understanding, always willing to listen and offer support when I needed it. She’s encouraged me, striking the right balance between challenging me to grow and pushing me outside my comfort zone, while also being accommodating of my needs. I’ve also benefited from helpful, personalised guidance from a career’s advisor. - Anonymous
