The Grad Scheme

We believe in people feeling comfortable in bringing their authentic self to work – we have an open and diverse working environment and so we designed our application process with exactly the same philosophy. It’s a three-stage process, each step designed to learn that little bit more about you as an individual. So, leave all the typical CV phrases and corporate buzz-words at the door and truly embrace what we think is a really fun, unique and self-discovering application process. The Grad Scheme is a structured two-year training programme, combining a 3 month paid role, learning the foundations of all available roles, (with an additional 3 months job specific probation thereafter) with on-the-job training and any exam qualifications you need to accelerate your career in financial services. Like anything, you will start with the basics, like learning how to make the tea (ok, that’s a joke!) and getting to grips with the ins-and-outs of ‘The Verve Group’ as a company. This will give you a taste of the type of company we are and how we operate. It will also introduce you to the clients we provide a service for and the culture and environment we’ve created – so you can really immerse yourself within the team and ultimately, excel in your role. We appreciate that everyone is different and we all learn at different paces, so as long as we can see the potential in you, we’re happy for you to progress through the programme at your own speed, obviously with some key milestones agreed from the outset to make sure you keep on track. Naturally, those milestones will reflect the role you take in the business – think of it as your very own personal career guide!
