Aspiring Graduate Agency Surveyor
Property Graduate? Skip the Corporate Machine & Fast-Track Your APC
Location: Cambridge (Open-plan, collaborative regional head office)
Salary: £27,000 - £30,000 p/a (depending on experience) + £2,400 Car Allowance + Exceptional Benefits Package
If you are finishing an RICS-accredited degree or looking to kickstart your career in Commercial Real Estate, you face a choice. You can become a tiny cog in a massive, faceless corporate wheel, or you can join a premier, privately owned independent partnership where you will actually stand out, get client-facing experience on day one, and be supported by a team who know your name. Time to join one of the most respected, dominant property consultancies in the East of England. You will be their next ambitious Graduate Commercial Agency Surveyor and the newest member of their close-knit, high-performing team in Cambridge.
What Makes This Opportunity Different?
Unlike corporate graduate schemes where you might spend your first year stuck behind a spreadsheet doing data entry, here you will be out in the field. You will be working across the region's most exciting commercial sectors—including Commercial Office, Industrial and key sectors like science, technology, and R&D markets.
* Gold-Standard APC Support: This isn't a box-ticking exercise. You will be paired with an assigned supervisor and counsellor, attend quarterly sign-offs, receive structured mock interviews, and get full case study support.
* Real Deal-Making Experience: You will assist with commercial lettings and sales, conduct property viewings, measure buildings, and actively support client negotiations.
* A Culture That Cares: They genuinely believe that a career shouldn't come at the cost of your life. The culture is collaborative, welcoming, and entirely free of corporate stuffiness.
The Rewards & Perks
On top of a competitive starting salary and car allowance, this firm offers a benefits package designed to look after you:
* Generous Leave: 23 days annual leave (increasing with service), plus bank holidays, your birthday off, and a guaranteed 3 additional days off between Christmas and New Year so you can properly unwind.
* Health & Wellbeing: Full health cash plan (including virtual GP, discounted gym memberships, shopping discounts, and mental health support) plus optical cover.
* Professional Fees Paid: They fully fund your professional memberships and continuous training.
* The Social Side: Great team-building events, legendary summer and Christmas parties, and regular charity initiatives.
What You Need to Bring
* An RICS-accredited property degree (or currently working towards a relevant property qualification).
* A genuine interest in the Cambridge commercial property market and occupier trends.
* Strong communication skills—you need to be comfortable picking up the phone and talking to clients, tenants, and solicitors.
* A proactive, self-motivated approach and a driving licence (with access to your own vehicle).
