DTZ has welcomed twenty five graduates to its graduate
development programme for 2011. Fifteen have joined in London and a
further eight will be based in regional offices, including
Birmingham, Bristol, Cheltenham, Leeds and Manchester. Two Chinese
national graduates who studied in the UK will also work for DTZ in
Hong Kong and mainland China. The new recruits joined the
firm on Monday 12 September.
Joining the Birmingham office is graduate, Alice Campbell
Rice.
The UK-based recruits will complete their induction week at
DTZ's global headquarters in the City of London. This week will
equip them with knowledge of the DTZ business and the industry and
marks the start of a two-year training programme that will see the
graduates gaining experience by rotating around a diverse range of
departments. On RICS qualification, the graduates will then
work across DTZ's business, in commercial, building and residential
surveying, corporate real estate consulting, planning, economics
and Investment Management.
John Forrester, Chief Executive, DTZ said: "I'm delighted that
we are bringing significant new graduate talent into our firm as we
do every year. Graduates are essential to the future success of our
business and, for those that have the ambition, ability and
attitude to succeed, this company and industry offers them a huge
amount of opportunities.
"Our graduate programme is one of the best in the business. It
provides leadership training and experience, as well as the nuts
and bolts professional training that graduates need. A high
proportion of our senior leadership joined the graduate scheme
straight from university."
Shan Nelson, Graduate Recruitment & Development Manager at
DTZ added: "We are committed to helping graduates build on their
strengths and develop their skills and knowledge to achieve their
career goals. We have recruited to a range of disciplines,
including commercial surveying, building surveying, development
consulting, economics and corporate real estate consulting, which
