Due to the immense popularity of our G Programme, and in light of the difficult economic times we have just launched a Work Placement Programme for Graduates only, aimed at delivering the skills, experience and knowledge you need to give yourself the edge in building a strong career. If you have gradauted in the last 3 and have not landed yourself a strong career yet, we want to hear from you.

 

Companies are not hiring and even the most experienced and skilled personnel are being made redundant. Moreover, it is your lack of experience in the business world that hinders your progress in the ‘real world’. As a Trainee at De Vere Private Equity (DVPE), you are an employee. You will be exposed to many parts of the business to help you gain knowledge, experience and apply what skills you have learnt at university. Remember, your university studies are merely theory, applying them into real life cases is a different story.

 

You will be involved in many projects, some large some small. But each project will be aimed at developing you, you will be growing as the projects grow. You will be working in teams and on your own. This Trainee Programme will give you an overview of what is required to deliver successful projects on a practical operational level.

 

The 8 week programme will be intense and fast. You are not paid for your Work Placement as it is aimed at developing you as opposed to you delivering a service to the company.
This is a 8 weeks work placement full time. Working hours Mon-Fri 9.30 - 17.30.

 

We will expose you to:

  1. Project Management
  2. Team Co-ordination
  3. Admin Maintenance
  4. Financial Handling
  5. Client Liaison
  6. IT Infrastructures
  7. Product Development
  8. Marketing
  9. Business Organisation
  10. Business Development
  11. Software Development

You can choose the field you wish to be employed in. All roles are targeted at helping you develop a variety of skills as well as utilise your university obtained knowledge. These roles are targeted at developing Trainees with backgrounds in relevant and related disciplines. For instance, if your degree is in Arts, it is very unlikely you will get a position as a Financial Analyst.
